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 mama and a papa and a boy who was grown
He wanted to marry, have a wife of his own

Found a young girl, that suited him nice
He went to his papa to ask his advice

His papa said:-Son, I have to say no,
this girl is your sister, but your mama 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 'round
Soon the best cook
in the island he found

He went to his papa
to name the day
His 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 mama 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 mama and covered his head
and told his mama what his papa had said
His mama, she laughed, she said:
-Go, man, go
You 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
