Oh Cudelia Brown, wha’ meck your head so red?
Oh Cudelia Brown, wha’ meck your head so red?
You sid ung ina de sunshine
Wid nutten ‘pon your head
Oh, Cudelia Brown, that’s why your hair so red
Your hair so red
Your head so red

On a moonshine night, on a moonshine night
I meet missa Ivan
An’ missa Ivan told me
Say dat him give Neita the drop, Jamaican flop
And the moonshine drop

Oh Cudelia Brown, wha’ meck your head so red?
Oh Cudelia Brown, wha’ meck your head so red?
You sid ung ina de sunshine
Wid nutten ‘pon your head
Oh, Cudelia Brown, that’s why your hair so red
Your hair so red
Your head so red
Ehe, aha

On a moonshine night, on a moonshine night
I meet missa Ivan
An’ missa Ivan told me
Say dat him give Neita the drop, Jamaican flop
And the moonshine drop

And the reason why, because
Her head so red
Her head so red
Her head so red
Ehe, aha
