Carry mi ackee go (a) Linstead Market
Not a quattie wut sell.
Lord! not a light, not a bite;
What a Saturday night!
Lord! what a life, not a bite;
What a Saturday night!

Ev'rybody come feel up, feel up
Not a quattie wut sell.
Ev'rybody come feel up, feel up
Not a quattie wut sell.
Lord! not a light, not a bite;
What a Saturday night!
Lord! what a life, not a bite;
What a Saturday night!
What a Saturday night!
What a Saturday night!
