Lyrics 0.(Ref) O manager, O manager; cutting (sugar) cane doesn’t pay at all. Rice and flour dear (expensive) at shops; what (do) you mean by it all? People, people come let us go. People, people come let us go.(2) Pick up your sauce-pan, your cutlass and your hoe. (Refrain) I worked hard in the farmlands ’til my hand got a caan (corn).(2) When I get the money, it goes in the paan (pawn shop?). (Refrain) The manager (manja) left the estate, he had to go away.(2) When his partner heard that, she cried every day. Yes, she cried every day; she cried every day. Carry away me raja, I won’t stay anymore. (Ref) The manager went away - the (local) police took over. (2) What we have today, is more harder labor. Yes, it’s more harder labor; more harder labor. Carry away me raja, I won’t stay anymore.(Ref)
LOL... Of course that's Kanchan - I performed on that same show at Metro Convention Center in Toronto... The recording is from a few years ago...🙂 Peace
Lyrics
0.(Ref) O manager, O manager; cutting (sugar) cane doesn’t pay at all.
Rice and flour dear (expensive) at shops; what (do) you mean by it all?
People, people come let us go. People, people come let us go.(2)
Pick up your sauce-pan, your cutlass and your hoe. (Refrain)
I worked hard in the farmlands ’til my hand got a caan (corn).(2)
When I get the money, it goes in the paan (pawn shop?). (Refrain)
The manager (manja) left the estate, he had to go away.(2)
When his partner heard that, she cried every day.
Yes, she cried every day; she cried every day.
Carry away me raja, I won’t stay anymore. (Ref)
The manager went away - the (local) police took over. (2)
What we have today, is more harder labor.
Yes, it’s more harder labor; more harder labor.
Carry away me raja, I won’t stay anymore.(Ref)

That would be incorrect. This is originally a Guyanese folk song done by Sundar
This song was originally sung by a Guyanese about an issue in Guyana.
Nope. This is a Guyanese folk song
This is a 🇬🇾 folk song. Who cares she sang it best

Not kanchan singing
LOL... Of course that's Kanchan - I performed on that same show at Metro Convention Center in Toronto... The recording is from a few years ago...🙂 Peace
