Married life is a serious ting,
Suh careful when yuh put on di wedding ring
Fa some woman just want di bling bling,
while some man just want di sing ting
Trouble nuh set like rain,
as yuh quint yuh a bawl fi emotional pain,
dash out yuh sweetness tink him would a tame,
but in di mawning him seh it was all a game,
seh she ago mek yuh happy here ever aafta
mekk yuh har king and full up yuh life a laafta
now shi a wife shi stop cook and tell yuh fi drink salt watta
lock shop pan yuh cause shi nuh want nuh son or daughta
today him mek yuh feel like a queen
if a fly pitch pun yuh him mek a scene
tomorrow him cut yuh off like a Guillotine
cause what him want is a girl ina har teen
today she want yuh put a ring on it
cause to har she want yuh fi commit
Tomorrow she just caan stand it
Cause what she want is a gold smith
Today him stick pon yuh like crazy glue
Give yuh nuff loving not just a few
Tomorrow him fly away like bird wid out a clue
Leaving yuh wid yuh eye them black and blue
Today there is nothing that she wouldn't do
Cause along time she want a man like you
Tomorrow is a next man she a screw
Leaving yuh bawling saying if only I knew
Married life is not a bed rose,
Yuh have whole heep a highs and whole heep lows,
Cause Yuh live di life that you chose,
Suh be sure about it before yuh propose.
~ The Noble Cop
