Needles
Needles on my roof top
Dressings dripped in gold
I see
Plenty people dancing
I wonder what they're dancing for?
Got
Needles on my roof top
And
Footprints by my door
I hear
Plenty people dancing
I wonder what they're dancing for?
My cousin's getting married in the morning
The weddings in Arima they gone hear it in Chaguanas
A couple cousins coming down from St. Augustine
My shawty said her stomach still adjusting
And I
Ain't seen my brother for 6 years
But enough of my worries
Cuz I'm about to go dance with all my friends and my family
My sis drives me nuts, she going ham with that camera
But I still gotta show up
Glowed up
And all my relatives say 'oh how you've grown up
When was the last time that I saw you?'
I dunno I was what
Maybe 2 years, 3 years old, 1 year old, even before
But its nice to see you again
Cuz we're all here for the same reason
To celebrate love
In the rainy season
And we're all here for the same people
So forget these pesky needles
Needles on my roof top
Dressings dripped in gold
I see
Plenty people dancing
I wonder what they're dancing for?
Got
Needles on my roof top
And
Footprints by my door
I hear
Plenty people dancing
I wonder what they're dancing for?
I pray your love never sours young plum chow
Galvanize stretching when the suns down
Tassa drummers pounding move your waist now
It's a party people gather round
And dance with me everbody dance
If they ask why tell 'em you ain't got the answer
Like sway
Cuz you don't owe em anything
Watching all my aunties stunting in their gold hoops and silver rings
We Finna party till its after 4
My rooftop glistens let those needles pour
Mr transatlantic trini moving back and forth
Cuz my dear country my heart is yours
Needles on my roof top
Dressings dripped in gold
I see
Plenty people dancing
I wonder what they're dancing for?
Got
Needles on my roof top
And
Footprints by my door
I hear
Plenty people dancing
I wonder what they're dancing for?
Dressings dripped in gold
I see
Plenty people dancing
I wonder what they're dancing for?
Got
Needles on my roof top
And
Footprints by my door
I hear
Plenty people dancing
I wonder what they're dancing for?
My cousin's getting married in the morning
