A woman write a letter to the doc inquiring "Tell me why you ban B.G. plantain" "Doctor," she said, "I am inquiring Why de hell you ban B.G. plantain? Doctor, I can't take it no longer Like if you want me to suffer with hunger Trinidad plantain ain't good at all And so the men making style wid dem, so they small" But one B.G. plantain does full up de pot It's so satisfying, 'specially when hot Lord knows ah suffering Since you ban B.G. plantain It is to much to bear Doctor, you too unfair I will do anything To taste a B.G. plantain Dear Doctor, I hope you will agree To change the law and show some sympathy Even tho' you are angry with B.G. Why should you make we pay de penalty? You say you want us to use local plantain But dis is one time you ain't know wha' you doing De plantain here in this place Too small, too soft, and got no blasted taste But one B.G. plantain does full up de pot It's so satisfying, 'specially when hot Lord knows ah suffering Since they ban B.G. plantain It is to much to bear Doctor, you too unfair I will do anything To taste a B.G. plantain Woy oy oy Aye aye aye, mama She tell me even when she sleeping it's confusion Dreaming how she have a big plantain in she hand "Mister," she said, "ah going staring mad You can't imagine how ah want dis thing so bad" Freighter from B.G. so I send de girl by him When she come back she fuming and cussing Asking if I ain't hear wha' she say She want plantain and I send she for sikiye But one B.G. plantain does full up de pot Lord knows ah suffering Since they ban B.G. plantain It is to much to bear Doctor, you too unfair I will do anything To taste a B.G. plantain Since de B.G. boat don't bring plantain again Only up in Toco you could find some good size grain De vendors in de city only fas and bobol face Except for Massy Fay and big-nose Amal Bess Still dem is joke to real B.G. plantain When it hanging on de tree it still dragging Long like a man hand, tough like iron Dat is why ah want de Doctor to raise de ban One B.G. plantain does full up de pot It's so satisfying, 'specially when hot Lord knows ah suffering Since they ban B.G. plantain It is to much to bear Doctor, you too unfair I will do anything To taste a B.G. plantain
