Lyrics
Now dis one dedicated to the gyal
Dem wid di angel face and the devil heart
You know seh Ragamuffin Chaka Demus an' yute called Pliers
Come to deal wid your case
Step up my yute, hear dis
I know this little girl her name is Maxine
Her beauty is like a bunch of rose (betta know)
If I ever tell you 'bout Maxine
You woulda say I don't know what I know, but
Murder she wrote (for real, for real)
Murder she wrote
Murder she wrote
Murder she wrote
Watch 'ya now, it name
A pretty face and bad character
Dem deh kinda livin' cyaan' hold Chaka, follow me
A pretty face and bad character
Dem deh kinda livin' cyaan' hold Chaka
Seh gyal yuh pretty
Yuh face it pretty but yuh character dirty
Gyal you just ah act too flirty flirty
You run to Tom, Dick, and also Harry
An' when you find yuh mistake
You talk 'bout yuh sorry, sorry, sorry, come now
Have her cruise di corner where she jooks an' where she jam
She know about Lou, Crack an' every money man (ah, true, man)
Make love wid di coolie, Chinese, white man and Indian
Di wickedest kind ah girl weh Mr. Pliers buk upon (betta know)
Now do you heard about this girl her name is Maxine?
Her beauty is like a bunch of rose
And if I ever tell you 'bout Maxine
You woulda say I don't know what I know, but
Murder she wrote (murderation man)
Murder she wrote
Murder she wrote, na, na, na
Murder she wrote
Watch 'ya now stand still, you nuh pay mi light bill
If you test di ragamuffin, gyal yuh gwan get kill
Gyal keep way, cah yuh a crebbie crebbie
An' di lyrics weh me talk ah it me DJ
Gyal come out, becah you nuh shockout
An' when you hear di raggamuffin y'affi jump and shout
Nuh touch mi gate, you nuh pay mi water rate
Becah great is great, great cyaan' underate, follow me
Yuh pretty face and bad character
