One Hand Man

Mighty Sparrow

[Verse 1]
Well what is wrong with Vero and Lillian
The two of them like too much confusion
What is wrong with Vero and Lillian
The two of them like too much confusion

Morning, noon, and night
They fighting for a one hand man
And if you see the man
His face like a frying pan

[Chorus]
It's the short piece of hand
That they want in they possession
From the wrist to the elbow
Mama, they won't let go
Big war
Piece of hand that they fighting for

[Verse 2]
To figure out this thing, friends, I just can't
Know why a one hand man so important
So much a handsome man in Tobago
Why this one hand man is the hero?

Since his hand got amputated
He livin' in style
Ain't working, no way
And got the women runnin' wild

[Chorus]
It's the short piece of hand
That they want in they possession
From the wrist to the elbow
Mama, they won't let go
Big war
Piece of hand that they fighting for

[Verse 3]
I used to think when a man have one hand
He used to catch all hell to get woman
For every woman I know like dancing
And she huggin' up and romancin'

But Vero and Lillian
Tell me the reason why:
"A one hand man have a love
Darling, it will never die"

[Chorus]
It's the short piece of hand
That they want in they possession
From the wrist to the elbow
Mama, they won't let go
Big war
Piece of hand that they fighting for

[Verse 4]
Well with these women know it's a problem
You got to be abnormal to please them
If you don't have three legs or a one hand
You can't satisfy no young woman

Ah try scratching hands with Vero
She watch me and smile
"Don't try that", she say
"Middle finger out of style"

[Chorus]
It's the short piece of hand
That they want in they possession
From the wrist to the elbow
Mama, they won't let go
Big war
Piece of hand that they fighting for
