I love Betty Brown's mother
I hope it's not against the law
I just love Betty Brown's mother

Hey, all for the right kinda girl
My girl don't carry no 50 grand purse with 40 cents in
My girl don't shine her eye for no guy with rent-a-rim
My girl no tsk no tsk no tsk run down on her chin
My kinda girl don't do them thing
That's why I love her, love her that's why I pick her
and keep her up and save her from the fire.
Something about her, never have to doubt her,
never worry bout how many men will shout her.
Couldn't be no other, sent from the father,
she's a type a girl ain't no temporary lover however
she will carry my heat seeker undercover.
My girl no have six kids for 'bout seven rusty dude
My girl don't come on sight come hype for baby food
My girl no birthday suit out and gone walk a road;
my kinda girl wouldn't be so rude
She's the kinda girl you woulda take home to mama,
talk to me with respect and listen me with honour
Not afraid to peel my hand a banana,
that's why I call her come here ma nanna
She raise my flag and hoist my banner,
no sour face in the morning not ever
Won't try to hide any man in the sauna;
then she wouldn't be my girl.
Can't come touch her, sweetie come brush her
and not any other girl can come rush her
No lie down for Usher, don't want Bone Crusher,
money can't frighten her so you can't buy her
That's why I love her, love her that's why I pick her
and keep up and save her from the fire.

Some people want to say it isn't good for me

Hey, but I don't need no glasses to see, no
How to juggle, to come out of any melee

Seems to me you will agree we need another hero
Someone to front it, bigger than a Geronimo
Pull up the cork and pour it on

First the wheat and then now the corn
Inhibition is going, going, gone
Some people would say it isn't good for me

Want you understand, yes, yes?
I'm steppin' it hotter this year
Hey, run for cover
Gunshot respect not, booma
Gunshot in the respect notch
Shot, respect not, gunshot in the respect notch
Now cats and dogs and men and people
For some it's good and some, stupid evil
For Kings and Queens and El Presidente
Or passer-by and spy or could wind up in the cemetery
Shot, respect not, booma
Gunshot in the respect notch
Shot, respect not
Gunshot in the respect notch
Hey dunno what a bullet won't do, hey
Even the minister and the sinister
A marine of Brigadista
Some win, some lose
And some skip across the border
When men were bold
This thing wasn't plenty
Now that heaven and earth are old
Hey, one fool makes many
Gunshot respect not, skeng-eh
Gunshot in the respect notch
Shot, respect not, skeng-eh
Gun shot in the respect notch
Ow, oh, oh
Run for cover
I dunno what a bullet won't do
Follow you round the corner
Follow you across the border
When it hits, it hurts
Throw ya down in the dirt
They have to cover ya with earth
Hey, hey, hey
Tear drops like rainbow
Even the minister and the sinister
A marine of Brigadista
Some win, some lose
And some skip across the border
When men were bold
This killin' wasn't plenty
Now that heaven and earth are old
Hey, one fool makes many
Gunshot respect not, skeng-eh
Gunshot in the respect notch
Shot, respect not
Gunshot in the respect notch
Ow, ow, ow
Run for cover
I dunno what a bullet won't do
Hey, I dunno what a bullet won't do
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Follow you 'round the corner
Follow you across the border
Tracks you down to ya mother
Running you down into the streets and lanes
Hits the juice out of ya veins, hey, hey
I dunno what a bullet won't do
Hey, hey, hey, hey
I dunno what a bullet won't do, hey
Gunshot respect not, skeng-eh
Gunshot in the respect notch
Shot, respect not
