Shame And Scandal In The Family Lyrics

Woe is me
Shame and scandal in the family
Woe is me
Shame and scandal in the family

In Trinidad there was a family
With much confusion as you will see
It was a momma and a papa and a boy who was grown
Who wanted to marry and have wife of his own
He found a young girl who's suiting him nice
He went to his papa to ask his advice
And papa said, "son, I have to say no
That girl is your sister, but your momma don't know"

Woe is me
Shame and scandal in the family
Woe is me
Shame and scandal in the family

A week went by and the summer came down Shawn Elliot - Shame And Scandal In The Family - http://motolyrics.com/shawn-elliot/shame-and-scandal-in-the-family-lyrics.html
And soon the best cook in the island he found
He went to his papa to name the day
And papa shook his head and to him he did say
"You can't marry this girl, I have to say no
This girl is your sister, but your momma don't know"

Woe is me
Shame and scandal in the family
Woe is me
Shame and scandal in the family

He went to his momma and covered his head
He told his momma what his papa has said
His momma she laughed, she said, "go man, go
Your daddy ain't your daddy, but your daddy don't know"

Woe is me
Shame and scandal in the family
Woe is me
Shame and scandal in the family
