Lyrics

A shine eye gyal is a trouble to a man
A shine eye gyal is a trouble to a man
I rise early looking some tea
Looking for the daughter, but she no on yah
I take a walk down the street
Di gyal deh pon corna wid push mouth Lorna
And har bed no spread
Shine eye gyal is a trouble to a man
Shine eye gyal is a trouble to a man
The next day, she want I could take her out
Take her to the beach party
Feeling everything would be irie
Wrinkles on her face
Like the things I've done she don't appreciate
A shine eye gyal is a trouble to a man
Shine eye gyal is a trouble to a man
She wanty-wanty and a when she really, really getty woi
Rastafari knows she cyaan tek it
She seh, "Natty turn off your light"
Give me dreadlock weh you gimme first night
Oh, I say
A shine eye gyal is a trouble to a man
Shine eye gyal is a trouble to a man
Shine eye, shine eye
A shine eye gyal is a trouble to a man
A shine eye gyal is a trouble to a man
I rise early, looking some tea
Looking for the daughter, but she no on yah
I take a walk down the street
Di gyal deh pon corna wid push mouth Lorna
And har bed no spread
A shine eye gyal is a trouble to a man
A shine eye gyal is a trouble to a man
A shine eye gyal is a trouble to a man
Take her to the beach party
Feeling everything would be irie
Wrinkles on her face
Like the things I've done she don't appreciate
A shine
Shine eye, shine eye
Shine eye gyal is a trouble to
Shine eye gyal is a trouble to
