Vybz Kartel – Good Father Lyrics

(Intro)
Mi love my youth dem
Mi patton mi daddy style
Long as I can remember from mi a likkle child

(Chorus)
When mi seh mummy weh mi daddy gone
Shi seh a work unuh daddy gone
Him left out from in a the morning
And him nah come back till unuh a yarn

When mi seh mummy weh wi daddy gone
Shi seh a work unuh daddy gone
Him left out from in a the morning
And him nah come back till unuh a yarn

This a fi the good father, good father
This a fi the good father, good father
Real man nah run left him pickney dem
And left the burden pon the mother

This a fi the good father, good father
This a fi the good father, good father
Real man nah run left him pickney dem
And left the burden pon the mother

(Verse 1)
Big up the man dem weh mind dem youth
Yo no haffi spend a million a buy dem suit
But no matter how the money small hi no star
Likkle supn, supn, haffi find dem youth
As a father yuh fi spend time wid son
Demw i tek up the crime then shoot
No careless daddy cyaa get mi salute
Mi love mi father that a the truth

(Repeat Chorus)

(Verse 2)
A no every, everybody have money like dirt
Fi provide yo youth wid the luxury a earth
Money a no all, money a no all
Mi a talk from mi heart seh a family first
Mi love my daddy from mi was a likkle bwoy
Cause that man teach mi the value of work
Nuff time him come home sweat a run out a shirt
Him meck mi become the man that I am today

(Repeat Chorus)
