There's a song by Papa Levi but I can't remember the name. He dj's really fast in it and then say "Pupa Levi pon di version". Then there is the song that goes "So mi go dung a di river an mi ketch 2 fish/ 2 a dem a jack and 2 a dem a turbit/ carry dem go to mama an' she put dem inna dish/ Mama say son youh know yuh fantastic/ So she gimmie $20 fi go dung a market/Mi buy punkin, tomato and garlic........." What's the name of that one?
 
Yo Mr Curlz- the one by Papa Levi is called "Mi God Mi King". That song is over 20 years old but still sound good to this day. Papa levi was one of the wickidest DJ ever and the rest of the Saxon Hi fi Crew from the early 80's were all just as good. Man like TipPa Irie, Daddy Colonel, Sandy, Rusty and Maxi Preist.

Don't remember the name of the other one but I do remember the lyrics.

I never heard of Joseph Cotton. Maybe he did the second one I was talking about. Yeah it was around '86-'89.
