Is yuh hair from here?

The complexity

of we hair insanity

Is yuh hair from here

Black woman you boosting

yuh from here

But yeh still wearing another

woman hair

And yuh looking fo ah man

who got good hair

For you can't stand te make

Ah pignin with picky hair

So yuh now judging a man

By looking at he hair

So he good or he bad

Depending on he hair

And that is if he born here

Or whether he come from

Elsewhere

So please tell me what is bad hair

Is it Negro hair

And what good is there

in good hair

Apart from costing you dearer

Remember it was your father

And your mother

Who you say you love so dear

work soo hard to give you that hair

And now like a ungratful deer

Yeh choose to wear

Another woman hair

So be careful what hair

you wear

Becuz if t'aint your hair

Then t'aint from HERE

Even though yuh born HERE

Part of you ain't from here

So stop boosting

You from here

Since you damn well know

The hair yuh wearing come

From elsewhere.
