Mighty Sparrow( The Mighty Sparrow )

Sparrow Dead
I hear he had cancer I hear he had yellow fever Something in de bladder And a double dose of leukemia
Two gossip mongers gossipin' I stand up in a corner listenin' Before I could ask who dey talking 'bout, A newspaper boy start to shout
'Hey paper! 'Extra!' 'Read all about it!' 'Paper!'
Who kill de Sparrow? Nobody know... ('Sparrow dead!') If you see dis woman ('Sparrow dead!') Wid a flag in she hand ('Sparrow dead!') She bang she belly ('Sparrow dead!') Tellin' everybody ('Sparrow dead!') Who kill de Sparrow? Nobody know...
According to Vicki He was always lookin' sickly So he went to England For a belly transplant operation
It's de woman that he foul up begee (?) If she would walk out on he Another newsman, got tell she know - It's the devil that he sell for calypso!
'Hey, paper' 'Extra!' 'Read all about it!' 'Paper!'
Who kill de Sparrow Nobody know {'Sparrow dead!'} If you see dis woman {'Sparrow dead') With a flag in she hand ('Sparrow dead!') She bang she belly {'Sparrow dead') Tellin' everybody ('Sparrow dead') Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Well big mouth Lillian Say the funeral was on television She picky head cousin say 'Mmmhumm, de coffin cost twenty thousand That is why he sell de company To pay de doctor and de burial fee' While she talking up scum big Belly Angie With a paper bawlin' 'Girl, all you ain't see?'
Oh, you read it? I'm gon' tell you:
Who kill de Sparrow? Nobody know... ('Sparrow dead!') If you see de woman ('Sparrow dead!') Wid a flag in she hand ('Sparrow dead!') She bang she belly ('Sparrow dead!') Tellin' everybody ('Sparrow dead!') Who kill de Sparrow? Nobody know...
Well dat was excitement Traffic jam, people block de pavement Mama look at comments Everybody done buy de Express
People want to kill Chopalingo Sparrow just land in Piarco This time the Evening News paints de town With another headline by Chester Marong
'Hey!' 'Read all about it!' 'Extra!'
Who kill de Sparrow? Nobody know... ('Sparrow dead!') If you see dis woman ('Sparrow dead!') Wid that flag in she hand ('Sparrow dead!') She bang she belly ('Sparrow dead!') Tellin' everybody ('Sparrow dead!') Who kill de Sparrow? Nobody know...
