Mighty Sparrow - Saltfish By The Mighty Sparrow lyrics

Saltfish stew is what I like So doo-doo, give me day and night I like you food, so don't find me rude My favorite, I sure every man in here already eat it Saltfish Nothing in the world sweeter than Saltfish English cod or the hard Barbadian Saltfish It's sweeter than meat When you want to eat All saltfish sweet Very well, I like the taste Though the smell, sometimes out of place It hard to take, but make no mistake I want you to know, it's because it extra sweet it smelling so boy it's Saltfish Big money does run behind it Saltfish Man does lick down man to find it Saltfish It's sweeter than meat When you want to eat All saltfish sweet Some like it hot, some like it cold No matter what, I take it young or old When it serve with wine, man does stew it fine Put no pepper, the bone in the centre does be sweet like sugar Saltfish Some men does get drunk to taste it Saltfish Some does go and hide to face it Saltfish It's sweeter than meat When you want to eat All saltfish sweet I would die, a happy man If I close me eye, with piece in me hand Bury me, in the cemetery In the mornin', put a saltfish picture on me tombstone saying Saltfish Sparrow was it's greatest lover Saltfish He even adored the odor Saltfish It's sweeter than meat When you want to eat All saltfish sweet
