Lord! Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.
Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.
Lord! Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.
Tell them again!
Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.

One thing that me just cannot understand:
Why so much bad man come a session? Lord!
Some carry knife like Tarzan.
Some a carry gun like James Bond.
Well dem a puff up them chest like Superman
and a pick pon the innocent man and woman.
Now listen to the words of Pato Banton
and how me explain this situation.

Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.
Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.
Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.
Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.

First let me tell you about the bad man
that come to the dance with them contention. Yes.
Come to dance with no intention
to listen to the band or Pato Banton.
The only thing they want to do is find a woman
and rub up in a corner all night long.
A dem there kind of man me call Desperate Dan,
when a lovers rock play they grab a girl hand.
Even when the tune done them still a hold on
'cause one dance won't do for a one night stand.
When some woman say "me no want dance!" some man take it wrong,
shame and pride take control of the situation,
start keep up argument and botheration,
that's why Mister Banton have fi sing this song.

Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.
Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session. Oh Lord!
Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session. Go-on!
Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session. Gwarn!

Too much badness a go-on in a the dance.
It's time fi it done, right now!

Now let me tell you about the woman
that come to the dance like Princess Ann.
Chains 'round their neck, ring on them hand,
some beautiful, some look like King Kong.
Some a look a good time, some a look man,
the bad woman dem just a look attention.
For example crowd a people check a situation:
The queue fi the powder room is half a mile long.
Some girls want put their hair in a good position.
Some girls want put some makeup or some perfume on.
Some girls a dead to pee pee but a hold on strong.
And dem a walk pon de spot, yes dem a walk pon it.
Bad gal come along and ignore everyone,
the front of the queue is her destination.
She puff up her chest like Wonder Woman
and if you say a word she would a lick you down.
But 9 times out of 10 is not she one
'cause every bad woman have to walk in a gang.

Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.
Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.
Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.
Bad man hey and woman,

Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.
Bad man hey and woman,
woe a mash up the late night session.
Bad man hey and woman,
