The sweeter the ass

Then a Rukumbine in a me san tom pee

Look 'pon the gal
With the big nose hole

*Girl in a tree
Pick her ackee
Boy underneath
A wask in khaki pants (cocky?)

Then a Rukumbine etc.

Probably garbled.

*I said a girl in a tree
A big uraki
right underneath her
Washing khaki pants.

*Engine a run
with fire and pull
look 'pon the girl
with the big bloosoo.
