Dem a say, "Macka B a lose a lot of weight"
Mi say, "No, me a lose waist, wha' me no need"
Dash 'way di excess, den proceed
It name excess baggage, leave that behind
A so me see dem doing it at di airline
If yuh luggage overweight, dey say yuh gotta pay
And if yuh body's overweight, yuh gonna pay same way
Press up, pull up, man a walk, man a run
Fit fi di fire, di fire haffi bun
Me dash 'way di weight 'cause it did hold me down
Me all a wine up mi waist like when me was young
Listen, Macka B, di lyrical rhymer
Some a dem gone a gym, we gone a Jemima
Choose yuh own a workout, yuh a di designer
'Cause when yuh physically fit, yuh feel a lot finer
Mi say, yuh body is divine, it couldn't deviner
And a yuh fi shape it up, yuh a di refiner
Mi say, come off of di settee and di recliner
Mi say, come exercise and bubble pon da B-line yah
It name excess baggage, leave that behind
A so me see dem doing it at di airline
If yuh luggage overweight, dey say yuh gotta pay
And if yuh body's overweight, yuh gonna pay same way
Press up, sit up, man a walk, man a run
Fit fi di fire, di fire haffi bun
Me dash 'way di weight 'cause it did hold me down
Me all a wine up mi waist like when me was young
Ready fi di exercise, mek we start it
Mi say, it's all about di physical fitness
Yuh always drive yuh car, sometime yuh haffi park it
Instead of driving to di shop, why don't yuh walk it?
Look fi di furthest parking space inna di supermarket
Sometime climb di stairs and nuh jus tek di lift
Do some yoga, tai chi, and do some pilates
Tek up sport, yes, deh yah good activities
Mi say, listen, Macka B come wid di exercise tip
Yuh fi bubble pon da riddim, a reggae aerobics
Swim, ride, walk, run, anything that yuh wish
It can help yuh inna life, a Jah Jah is mi witness
Well, yuh know say losing weight, it is a big business
And yuh know say losing weight can help yuh inna sickness
It can help yuh wid yuh pressure and yuh diabetes
It can help yuh lower back and help yuh arthritis
It can also help yuh bones and osteoporosis
It can also help prevent a lot of heart diseases
It can also help wid ting like multiple sclerosis
It can prevent some cancer, yuh better know dis
It name excess baggage, leave that behind
A so me see dem doing it at di airline
If yuh luggage overweight, dey say yuh gotta pay
And if yuh body's overweight, yuh gonna pay same way
Press up, pull up, man a walk, man a run
Fit fi di fire, di fire haffi bun
Me dash 'way di weight 'cause it did hold me down
Me all a wine up mi waist like when me was young
When yuh lose di weight, some people ask yuh, "What's wrong?"
Dey think yuh mussi sick or under medication
So me say to miself, "Me better mek a one song
Tell dem how me getting fit a fi di Armageddon"
And me decide fi lose it, a mi own decision
Me no waan see certain ting develop inna I man
So before di doctor see me and a ring off him hand
Mi say, me better start a fitness program
It's about di exercise and also a weh yuh nyam
Mi say, exercise and good nutrition
Still, anything can happen and yuh might not live long
But try help yuhself, damage limitation
It name excess baggage, leave that behind
A so me see dem doing it at di airline
If yuh luggage overweight, dey say yuh gotta pay
And if yuh body's overweight, yuh gonna pay same way
Press up, pull up, man a walk, man a run
Fit fi di fire, di fire haffi bun
Me dash 'way di weight 'cause it did hold me down
Me all a wine up mi waist like when me was young
