What you mean you not bringing home de bacon?

Lord Jesus!

Yu is always pon vacation,

No tell me chupidness say yu aching,

I gwey coof yu till yu start hact normal,

How come yu nevva tek mi anywhere formal?

All day long yu a gulley talk wid yu fren dem,

You no know sey all yu wuk pants a fi hem den,

Yu come in ya like yu hear news,

"Hurry, hurry!" is always yu excuse,

Cho!

I gwey coof yu till de sun don't shine!

You out dey a carouse and drink wine,

Evrybody else got dem forty acres and a mule,

What about me?

Me want mine too.
