I don't know the rock and the roll
can not sing funk and soul
I don't know the bluegrass and jazz
boy, my singing is a mess
I can't sit upon the rhythm'n'blues
cannot jump up with my blue suede shoes
can't sing like jacko chants along
I just can do one song
chorus:
the only song I know, is the ska a gogo
the ska a gogo is the only song I know
though I am no part of the yardland called jamaica
I feel like jamaica is part of my body and part of my soul
no matter how I try all the day
no matter how I sing all the way
I can't even sing a little thing for a school pickney
hip a hopical pop and disco and tekkno is all wrong
there's only one song I can sing all the day
and all the night long
