Brown Skin Girl

(앨범: Calypso - 1956)

Ev'rything to keep me from sleeping
A lot of sailor boys they were leaving
And everybody there were jumping
To hear the sailor boys in our chorus singing

Brown skin girl stay home and mind baby
Brown skin girl stay home and mind baby
I'm goin away, in a sailing boat
And if I don't come back
Stay home and mind baby Now de Americans made an invasion
We thought it was a help to the island
Until they left from here on vacation
They left de native boy home to mind their children

Brown skin girl stay home and mind baby
Brown skin girl stay home and mind baby
I'm goin away, in a sailing boat
And if I don't come back
Stay home and mind baby

Now I tell you de story 'bout Millie
Well she made a nice blue-eyed baby
And dey say she fancy the mother
But the blue-eyed baby ain't know she father

Brown skin girl stay home and mind baby
Brown skin girl stay home and mind baby
I'm goin away, in a sailing boat
And if I don't come back
Stay home and mind baby

Now de Americans all have their pleasure
While the music played to their leisure
Everybody there they were jumping
To hear the sailor boys in our chorus singing

Brown skin girl stay home and mind baby
Brown skin girl stay home and mind baby
I'm going away, in a sailing boat
And if I don't come back
Stay home and mind baby
