(Simmer down),
You lickin' too hot, so, (simmer down),
Soon you'll get dropped, so, (simmer down),
Can you hear what I say? (Simmer down),
Won't you, why won't you, why won't you simmer down?
Long time people dem used to say,
What sweet nanny goat a-go run him bel-ly, so;
(Simmer down),
Oh, control your temper, (simmer down),
For the battle will be hotter. (Simmer down),
Can you hear what I say? (Simmer down),
Oh, that I'm a-leaving you to-day, (simmer down).
(Simmer down),
Can you hear what I say? (Simmer down),
Oh, that I'm a-leaving you to-day. (Simmer down),
Can you hear what I say? (Simmer down).
Chicken Mer-ry, hawk de near,
And when him de near; you must be-ware, so;
(Simmer down),
Oh, control your temper, (simmer down),
For the battle will be hotter. (Simmer down),
And you won't get no supper, (simmer down),
And you know you bound to suffer.
Simmer down, simmer, simmer right down.
(Simmer down),
Like you never did be-fore, (simmer down),
Oh, oh, oh, (simmer down).
Can you hear what I say? (Simmer down),
You lickin' too hot, so; (simmer down),
And you know soon you'll get dropped, so;
(Simmer down),
Why won't you simmer, simmer down? (Simmer down),
Simmer down, (simmer down).
