[Verse 1]
Mi carry mi ackee go a Linstead Market
Not a quattie worth sell
Mi carry me ackee go a Linstead Market
Not a quattie worth sell

[Chorus]
Lawd what night, not a bite
What a Saturday night
Lawd what a night not a bite
What a Saturday night

[Verse 2]
Everybody come feel up, feel up
Not a quattie worth sell
Everybody come feel up, feel up
Not a quattie worth sell

[Chorus]
Lawd what night, not a bite
What a Satiday night
Lawd what a night not a bite
What a Satiday night
[Verse 3]
Make me call [?] “Ackee, ackee!”
Red and pretty dam tan
Lady, come buy your Sunday morning breakfast
Rice and ackee nyam gran’

[Chorus]
Lawd what night, not a bite
What a Satiday night
Lawd what a night not a bite
What a Satiday night

[Verse 4]
All di pickney come linga ling
Fi weh dem mumma no bring
All di pickney come linga ling
Fi weh dem mumma no bring

[Chorus]
Lawd what night, not a bite
What a Satiday night
Lawd what a night not a bite
What a Satiday night
