mighty sparrow - queen of the band lyrics

[verse 1]
during the emergency
mas player rosemary
was in a real tight spot
she didn’t know what was what
carnival is all she fun
and it look like there’ll be none
she take pen and paper from the shelf
and she write to heaven for help…

[chorus]
“dear father, this year
please don’t let them stop we carnival
please give us this year
a sunny and peaceful festival
peace and harmony
so daddy could buy all meh mas clothes
don’t give us [?]
[?] jump the calypso so
so that we could jump up in the band
drinking rum, hugging up we man
i remain yours truly, queen of the band!”

[verse 2]
i turn and i tell her
“let me see the letter”
she tell me to wait a minute
let she put some stamp on it
then she get a piece of rope
to tie up the envelope
she say, “saint peter he ain’t getting bail
if he ever open this mail!”
[chorus]
“dear father, this year
please don’t let them stop we carnival
please give us this year
a sunny and peaceful festival
peace and harmony
so daddy could buy all meh mas clothes
don’t give us [?]
[?] jump the calypso so
so that we could jump up in the band
drinking rum, hugging up we man
i remain yours truly, queen of the band!”

[verse 3]
ah sure by now you could tell
the woman was mad like h+ll
she is a real sufferer
with carnival fever
they don’t pay no mind to she
everyone know she crazy
she went and she give the parson
the letter to post to heaven…
