Steering Wheel [Version]

Lyrics

[Verse 1] She tell me "No, I ain't going Carenage Stay here in the garage I am afraid and you know after hours Down dey have night prowlers Anything you have to do, do it here We ain't have nothing to fear" When I hold she to demonstrate meh plan Is then the trouble began [Bridge] She start to working up and working up and working up and working up And she carrying on She foot stick in the steering wheel Blowing the bloody horn She father come out One machete in the hand, oh meh Lawd The old bull start to shout, and what he bawling: [Chorus] "Shame, Sparrow, shame" He say "You're spoiling meh daughter name Sparrow don't come back here again Supposing meh daughter strain!" [Verse 2] Can you imagine this long-legged woman In such an awkward position? And me the best friend of the family Couldn't be more guilty If she did keep she tail quiet Nobody would'a know the garage have activity But she kicking up like she mad Waving she leg like a blasted flag [Bridge] She only working up and working up and working up and working up And she carrying on She foot stick in the steering wheel Blowing the bloody horn She father come out One big stick in the hand, oh meh Lawd The old man start to shout, and what he bawling: [Chorus] "Shame, Sparrow, shame" He say "You're spoiling meh daughter name Sparrow don't come back here again Supposing meh daughter strain!" [Verse 3] This time the dog started to bark Don't talk how the garage dark Ah start to feel in the dark because I can't see She "What, you tickling me!" This time she ankle quite by the gear lever And she big toe hook the indicator Ah fighting hard to untangle she But the noise only waking everybody, mama yo! [Bridge] She working up and working up and working up and working up And she carrying on She foot stick in the steering wheel Blowing the bloody horn... blow blow blow blow She father come out One machete in the hand, oh meh Lawd The old bull start to shout, and what he bawling: [Chorus] "Shame, Sparrow, shame He say "You're spoiling meh daughter name Sparrow don't come back here again Supposing meh daughter strain!" [Verse 4] She little brother and she two nephew Come outside and peeping too Ah have toi run away, mama, from the car Ah couldn't face the grandmother This time meh jacket flying, meh shoes in meh hand Meh pants get away from meh midsection In the dark I stumble and fall The dog take meh socks, underpants and all [Bridge] She only working up and working up and working up and working up And she carrying on She foot stick in the steering wheel Blowing the bloody horn... whoa whoa whoa whoa!
