[Chorus]
Simmer down; What make you so hot, man?
Simmer down; Say, you will get dropped, man
Simmer down; Man, you hear what I say?
Simmer down; See, why won't you, why won't you simmer down?
Simmer down; Simmer-simmer-simmer

[Verse 1]
Long time people dem used to say
What sweet nanny goat a go run him belly (So)

[Chorus]
Simmer down; Just control your temper
Simmer down; Or the battle will be hotter
Simmer down; You hear what I say, hey?
Simmer down; See, why won't you, why won't you simmer down?
Simmer down;

Chicken Mary hawk deh near
And when him deh near you must beware (So)

[Chorus]
Simmer down; You hear what I say, hey?
Simmer down; See, why won't you, why won't you simmer down?
Simmer down; Just control your temper
Simmer down; You hear what I say, hey?
Simmer down; Simmer-simmer-simmer-simmer-simmer

Long time people dem used to say
What sweet nanny goat a go run him belly (So)

Simmer down; You hear what I say, hey?
Simmer down; I'm leaving you today, hey
Simmer down; See, why won't you, why won't you simmer down?
Simmer down; Just control your temper
Simmer down; Or the battle will be hotter
Simmer down; You hear what I say, hey?
Simmer down; Simmer-simmer-simmer-simmer
