The Neyo of Chutney Soca - Kenneth Salick
Yuh know how dem indian only like to sing about rum rum rum (and sometimes roti), this song is very different…I always thought Neyo was one of the greatest song writers (doesn’t degrade women in his songs too), so here is to Kenneth Salick - Radica (who I think should win Chutney Soca finals)
I will attempt to get the lyrics right…ofcourse its sang in Trini slang so expect broken english. There are one or two lines I marked with questions marks (??) that I couldn’t get quite right, so leave a comment with the correction. Thanks in advance.
Since you leave me, I am alone
I am like a dog, without a bone,
Gyul I don’t want to be alone,
So Radica why yuh leave and gooo
oohhh, Radica why yuh leave and gooo (x2)Life is journey we all have to travel,
If you not with me, I am unable
(repeat 2 above lines)
Life is a game we all have to play (x2)
And if yuh not in I just can’t winSo radica why yuh leave and gooo
oohhh, so Radica why yuh leave and go (x2)Some run for diamond,
Others run for gold
Some without dreams and stories are told (??)
(Repeat above 3 lines)
Some without faith, others desire (x2)
But all I waiting for is you RadicaSo Radica why yuh leave and goo
ohhh Radica why yuh leave and gooo
(Repeat above 2 lines twice)Don’t forget the bridges yuh burning behind
A love that is as true as mines, yuh will never find.
(repeat above 2 lines twice)
Some will promise you the heaven above, (x2)
But all I have is my true loveSo Radica why yuh leave and goo
ohhh Radica why yuh leave and gooo
(Repeat above 2 lines twice)I know I should hate you for all you put me through
But how can I hate you when I’m still in love with you.
(repeat above 2 lines twice)
My love for you may be unseen, (x2)
but even in my heart you is my queenSo Radica why yuh leave and goo
ohhh Radica why yuh leave and gooo
(Repeat above 2 lines twice)
Big chune! Ploy ploy! Ohhhhh radica y yuh leave n goooooo….!

i think after the words “some without” it might be dreams.

Some without … and stories are told (??)
this line sound like (at least to me):
“Some without reasons, stories are told”
