Dis A Girl -Horace Andy?

Post by myles »

I recorded this on tape back in '84 off DBC radio in London and have been looking for it ever since. The vocals are a very Horace Andy falsetto but not sure if it's him, with vibrato on 'life' and 'sight'. These lyrics are a 90% approximation, some words are difficult to work out:

"This a girl said me a da user, she say, “me si go, out of her life, me si go, out of her sight,”
Said me a da user, this a girl said me a da user,
She say, “me si go, out of her sight, me si go, out of her life,”
She say, “All me want to do is smoke Sensi, and eat three meals a day, talking about being super duper,
When it comes to she, it seems, she don't exist,”… (Repeat)

…She say, “All me do is sit down all day, with my friends playing guitar,
When me should go out look some work over yonder,
Instead me talk about being super duper, and the big mouth ya,…"

Many thanks for anyone who can work it out.
