Girl say
Hey boy I say no!!!
You take me and you break me
Don't do that to me
You want to destroy me
Man say
You have not even thought
Of the consequences of your life
You want to overstrain her
Don't judge her, no don't judge her
Chorus
My mother sent me to fetch water
You took me and you're tearing my brassiere
Don't tear, don't tear my petticoat
Hold on, I'll give you the thing
Take the thing, take the thing!
Take the thing, take the thing!
(men bagay la, men bagay la)
