Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Tina was no deceiver
Few were inclined to believe her
Abatina, oh
Who you have there breaking down the door?
She was lucky to marry a rich, rich man
Handsome like Harry
Abatina, oh
Who you have there breaking down the door?
Harry was a charmer
No one believed he could harm her
[Verse 2]
Abatina, oh
Who you have there breaking down the door?
Abatina, oh
Who you have there breaking down the door?
Abatina, Abatina
Abatina, oh
Who you have there breaking down the door?
[Verse 3]
The wedding was the talk of the town
The girl went down in a long, long white gown
Abatina, oh
Who you have there breaking down the door?
Said she want to marry above her
All she want was someone to love her
Abatina, oh
Who you have there breaking down the door?
News came first, they called her a liar
She had no sound, she mouth full of wire
[Verse 4]
Abatina, oh
Who you have there breaking down the door?
Abatina, oh
Who you have there breaking down the door?
Abatina, oh
Who you have there breaking down the door?
[Verse 5]
In the end, Tina was buried
By the church where she got married
Abatina, oh
Who you have there breaking down the door?
Tina should have outlived us
Now we pray that she will forgive us
Abatina, oh
Who you have there breaking down the door?
Tina was no deceiver
Few were inclined to believe her
Abatina, oh
Who you have there breaking down the door?
[Verse 6]
(Abatina, Abatina, Abatina, Abatina)
(Abatina, Abatina, Abatina)
Abatina
Abatina, oh
Abatina, oh
