[Chorus:]
Lawd me can't tek it no more
Give me back the woman weh you give me before
Lawd God I can't tek it no more
Give me back the woman weh you give me
[Verse 1:]
After Half Pint tek wey me girl Winsome
Laugh after me and tek it for fun
Then me go back and talk to Blossom
And she gone left me true no money nah run
Searching for a girl and me couldn't get none
When mi find one she said me have fi pay down
Now me confuse and mi no know weh fi tun
An a goin' pack a bag and go a New Kingston
[Chorus:]
Lawd me can't tek it no more
Give me back the woman weh you give me before
Lawd me can't tek it no more
Mi cry and mi cry till mi eye dem sore
[Verse 2:]
Mi first girl gone and they say a fi mi fault
And the rest of dem weh me deh wid too salt
If mi just come and just hear weh she say
You think mi a sidung and a bawl so today
I wish I coulda turn back the hands of time
Only that alone coulda mek me feel fine
Only God knows that mi really need her
And the reason mi a cry, true mi no waan kill myself
[Chorus:]
Lawd me can't tek it no more
Give me back the woman weh you give me before
LAWD! Me can't tek it no more
Mi cry and mi cry till mi eye dem sore
Lawd (sobbing)
Lawd me can't tek it no more
Give me back the woman weh you give me before
[Verse 3:]
Mi soon gone back 'cause you no know how mi a feel
You think a idiot business, this a sittin weh real
Man just cool and just leave me alone
An come out a mi yard and the whole a unuh go home
[Chorus:]
Lawd! Me can't tek it no more
Give me back the woman weh you give me before
LAWD! Me can't tek it no more
Mi cry and mi cry till mi eye...
(Unintelligible sobbing)
Lawd me can't tek it no more
Give me back the woman that you give me before
LAWD! Me can't tek it no more
Mi cry and mi cry till mi eye dem...
[Verse 1:]

An a goin' pack a bag and go a New Kingston
[Chorus:]
