Stella Lyrics by Mighty Sparrow

Calypso Carnival 1958

1960

[Verse 1]
No, no, no, no, no, no, Stella
Darling, have some behavior
Whoaaaah, Stella
Please have some behavior

You had too much drink in the christening
Now you don't know what you're doing
Get out me place I will tell you flat
This advantage for me to do a thing like that

So she bawl out
[Chorus]
Go ahead and take your advantage
Go ahead I give you privilege
Don't worry to have no sympathy
This is between you and me
I will take care of meself
Sparrow-darling bring the whisky from the shelf
Only give me one or two
And we going see who takin' advantage on who

[Verse 2]
Girl, its getting late I want to go
Move let me shut off me window
Remember I know your family
And we are all very friendly
It wouldn't be nice when they get to hear
I took advantage on you my dear
So for heavens sake get out, go for walk
When you sober up tomorrow Stell we gonna talk

Still she bawling
[Chorus]
Go ahead and take your advantage
Go ahead I give you privilege
Don't worry to have no sympathy
This is between you and me
I will take care of meself
Sparrow darling bring the whisky from the shelf
When I drink up one or two
You goin' see who takin' advantage on who

[Verse 3]
Sparrow, boy, I'm over twenty-two
Nobody tells me what to do
But, Stella, you had too much to drink
She laugh and she say that's what you think
Suddenly the telephone start ringing
So I pick it up start answering
Stella took the receiver from out me hand
Jumping up and shouting like a mad woman

Sparrow
[Chorus]
Go ahead and take your advantage
Go ahead I give you privilege
Don't worry to have no sympathy
This is between you and me
I will take care of meself
Doo-doo darling bring the whisky from the shelf
Only give me one or two
And we goin' see who takin' advantage on who

[Verse 4]
When I go to stand this thing no more
I decide to throw she through the door
She came to my bar drunk already
It's advantage to sell her more whisky
Her family and I are very good
And we live in the same neighborhood
Don't mind she give all privilege to me
I'll never take advantage on a young lady

Still she shoutin'
[Chorus]
Go ahead and take your advantage
Go ahead I give you privilege
Don't worry to have sympathy
This is between you and me
I will take care of meself
Doo-doo darling bring the whisky from the shelf
Only give me one or two
And we going see who takin' advantage onwho
