YUH BREK MEH BANK written by Sheldon Manoo (2001)

I used to be a wealthy man, a healthy man

Ah used to hah things Ah neva understand, ah change ah plan

But den one day

In de month ar May

Yuh came and wine on meh

And hah meh totulbay

Ah gih yuh one, yuh wah ‘bout two

Ah tell yuh there’s nothing Ah wouldn’t do for you

Well!  (Who tell meh to say dat?}4x

Yuh take! Yuh take! Yuh Take! Yuh take!

Now meh bank it break!

            Yuh brek meh bank (Ah used to hah so much)

            Yuh brek meh bank (Woman yuh wear meh out)

CHANT:         Yuh took all meh love

                        And yuh took a lot of time

                         And not even meh heart

                         Ah seeming tuh find..

                            (Yuh brek meh bank)  4x

RAPISH:        Yuh break it, yuh take it, everyting u took

                        Leave me like ah boobolie, leave me like ah mook

                        Now Ah stand in fantasy land with ah broken dream

                        All de luxury Ah had, well it wipe out clean!

RAPSO:          Meh soul right down and it under E

                        Car, house repossess, Ah hah no money

                        Buh doh worry ‘bout me Ah go make it through!

                        Ah hah de riches of God’s Love tha cah be broken by you!
