(Intro)
When yo hear the, yo know a serious something
Before yo go a dance yo better eat piece a dumpling
Fi go a dance and hungry is a dumb thing
My youth yo really hungry an a deal wid the rum thing
(Chorus)
Hungry belly and the Hennessy no gree
Before yo come a dance drink a cup a tea
Hungry belly and no liquor no gree
People tell mi if unu agree
(Verse 1)
The other night mi deh a waan dance up a winners
Mi si a dan roll in
Him and him friend dem wid two fatty an a slimmers
One a him friend drink Hennessy and never eat no dinner
When him drop down him seh gimmi some soup wid spinage
When him friend dem gi him the soup and him reviving
Him still never get up, him still a meck up him face like it no nice him
But when him smell the curry and the rice king
Him just up and seh thanks fi the advice king
(Repeat Chorus 2X)
(Verse 2)
Because Hennessy and hungry that a the wrong formula
How mi fi drink when hungry a call mi yah
Like the pickney dem weh dem inna Somalia
How mi fi mix white run wid white squall yah
Hungry a dig out yo intestine
That mean seh a food you fi invest in
This one bag a liquor weh yo interest in
My youth take mi advice it a the best thing
(Repeat Chorus)
