Ten Commandments (From Man to Woman) Songtext

von Prince Buster's All Stars

Those are the ten commandments of man
Given to woman
To the inspiration of I, Prince Buster

One,
Thou should have no other man but me

Two,
Thou shall not encourage no man to make love to you
Neither kiss nor caress you
For I'm your man, a Very jealous man
And is ready to lay low any other man who may intrude on our love

Three,
Remember to kiss and caress me
Honor and obey me, in my every whim and fancy
Seven days a week, and twice on sundays
Because at no time will I ever be tired of I-T, "it"

Four,
Honor my name, so that every other women may honor it also

Five,
Thou shall not provoke me to anger,
Or my wrath will descend upon you heavily

Commandment six,
Thou shall not search my pockets at night
Or annoy me with your hearsays

Commandment seven,
Thou shall not shout my name in the streets
If I'm walking with another woman
But wait intelligently until I come home
Then we can both have it out decently
For I'm your man, a funny man
And detest the scandals in public places

Commandment eight,
Thou shall not drink, or smoke,
Nor use profane language
For those bad habits I will not stand for

Nine,
Thou shall not commit adultery
For the world will not hold me guilty if I commit... murder

Ten,
Thou should not covet thy neighbor's dressed
Nor her shoes, nor her bureau, nor her bed, nor her hat
Nor anything that's hers
Neither shall thou call my attention to anything that maybe be for sale
In any stores, for I will not give thee anything
But what you actually need for your purpose

Those are the ten commandments from man
Given to woman
By me, Prince Buster
