Love in the Cemetery - Lord Kitchener

It was dark, dark, dark

In a big, big park

I felt like a king upon de throne

Me and Imelda liming alone

When I heard a talk

And a creeping walk

As I look around frightfully

I was in the center of the cemetery

Yuh talk about run

I nearly bus' meh head

De livin' running from de dead

A ghos' say, ‘Doh' run meh lad

Come leh we play a game of cards'

Well is now ah runnin' in truth

Meh foot stick in a mango root

Ah fall down inside a tomb

Ah get up with a zoom-zoom-zoom

What had me sad

And really mad

I was just about to start

A little romance wit' meh sweetheart

I kissed her twice

Just feeling nice

When a voice said ‘Mister yuh brave

To be bringin' yuh girlfriend on top meh grave'

Yuh talk about run

I nearly bus' meh head

De livin' running from de dead

A ghos' say, ‘Doh' run meh lad

Come leh we play a game of cards'

Well is now ah runnin' in truth

Meh foot stick in a mango root

Ah fall down inside a tomb

Ah get up with a zoom-zoom-zoom

As ah reach de street

A tall gentleman I meet

I was feeling so happy

To tell him of meh fright in de cemetery

He said ‘I can understand

You’re a wild young man

But still you’re not to be blamed

When I was alive I was just the same'

Yuh talk about run

I nearly bus' meh head

De livin' running from de dead

A ghos' say, ‘Doh' run meh lad

Come leh we play a game of cards'

Well is now ah runnin' in truth

Meh foot stick in a mango root

Ah fall down inside a tomb

Ah get up with a zoom-zoom-zoom

De scream I make

Ah sure de whole world shake

Ah now in big trouble

‘Cause ah sure ah see de Devil

Ah see a big white horse

On a big black cross

As ah bawl out 'Oh Gorm ah dead'

A voice say ‘Kitch, come go to bed'

Yuh talk about run

I nearly bus' meh head

De livin' running from de dead

A ghos' say, ‘Doh' run meh lad

Come leh we play a game of cards'

Well is now ah runnin' in truth

Meh foot stick in a mango root

Ah fall down inside a tomb

Ah get up with a zoom-zoom-zoom
