Cock Fight

Okay, alright
Johnny legalise cock fight
O'Halloran alright
Legalise cock fight
I have a cock here they calling Duncan
Well any time he fight is destruction
Now with a license around he head
Is leather 'til somebody fall down dead

Now Mama (cokie-o-coa)
Ah sure one ah these nights it will put me in trouble (cokie-o-coa)
I meself raise this cock, ah fuss he terrible (cokie-o-coa)
The prettiest thing is to see when they square off (cokie-o-coa)
And when they start to fight they don't like to stop, I say (cokie-o-coa)

Johnny, I so glad
You go make it legal in Trinidad
Let them cock fight, let they fight in peace
Ah tired hiding me cock from police
Long ago we had to fight in the jungle
Anytime we see a police was trouble
Now it is a legal sport in the land
Cock fighting in the police station

And mama (cokie-o-coa)
The more is the blood is the more he back, mama (cokie-o-coa)
Sometimes I feel like if he going mad (cokie-o-coa)
Don't ever let him catch you with the clinches (cokie-o-coa)
The length of his spurs is eleven inches (cokie-o-coa)

Duncan too sweet
I like to see him how he jumping when he in heat
With that lightning attack
In a minute and a half you're flat on your back
Ten of them attack him one night in Cedros
Is there ah prove how this cock dangerous
I meself see they pull Duncan down
But he hold them and he cut their throat one by one

Mama (cokie-o-coa)
You should see him how he coming when he hear the bell, mama (cokie-o-coa)
He got a hell of a temper like the devil in Hell (cokie-o-coa)
Eternal bobbing and weaving, he's left and right, mama (cokie-o-coa)
This is the cock and rack he born to fight I say (cokie-o-coa)

I know one day as man
I go have to retire this champion
Because right now things tight
No matter where he go he can't get a fight
The Cockfight association feel the pressure
Anybody he catch must walk with a stretcher
From the time they say "go" and he parachute
Is the score from your belly right to your neck

I want to hear you with
(cokie-o-coa)
Always on the go, no time to train (cokie-o-coa)
He just finish fight, he go fight again (cokie-o-coa)
Drinking drug and blood and guinea pepper (cokie-o-coa)
The money come in and they chopping like Jack the Ripper (cokie-o-coa)
