Missing Inez

INEZ

Wata woman

Wata woman

No words can say how we will miss her every day.

Wata wife 

Wata mother

Inez was like no other

Wata gran

Wata friend

The lord God did send.

Wata Godmother 

Wata soul mate

Not a single sign of hate.

Wata mother Wata mother Inez.

Hey, Inez talk about donkey tail, lik down de bucket NO! Lik down the pail.

Inez talk about cow foot stew best she would cook and give it to you.

Wata wey she would say. 

Come in my home and stay.

Wata wey she would mek ya belly full.

Wata wey she would love 

Wata wey she could not hate  

Wata wey she would stand and wave at the front gate.

Wata wey we will miss her

Wata wey we will cry

Wata way we will bawl 

till our eye drop dry

Wata way we will remember her laugh  and how she  fuss

Wata way we will remember the way Inez cuss.

Wata way she did dance wata way she did embrace

Wata way she did always tie the children’s lace

Wata way Inez did pray she would pray every day

She would listen to the words that our Lord God say.

Wata way she did fly like and Angel in the sky

No need to cry dry your eye and say GOODBYE.

Always in my heart
