Songwriter: Eugene "Bogene" Williams
Calypso and soca music is laced with double entendre. In calypso everything is fair game so this big band song is no exception. it is very clean ( we do have a grand stand) and very dirty at the same time but doh vex with me...it's up to your interpretation. Enjoy!
BTW- more soca tracks and reggae tracks to come in near future ...so stay tuned

1st verse
She said yuh must be crazy asking me to play with your band
Unless you added sections last year your band was too small
For many years now I switched I only playing with big band
Back when I played with small band ah used to feel like I ain’t play at all
No disrespect to small band small band have their fans
But me I like my band big and all inclusive
Big band have more action gives me satisfaction
Big band big band everything big
Brass band steelband everything big
All inclusive everything big
Big x 8
chorus
She say she like the big band cause big band have more action whoa

2nd verse
When it comes to playing mas she like to play in a big way
From Monday morning mud mas to pretty mas on Tuesday
And when it comes to party she said it must be a big fete
Cause only big band party does leave she soaking wet x 6
She doh care if it’s a town band or from south in Cochrane
Once the band is too small she ain’t playing at all
Big band have more action give me satisfaction
Big band big band everything big
Big rag big flag everything big
All inclusive everything big big x 8
Chorus
