nice tune, but I believe it's titled "Phillip My Dear". howeva, i didnt know there were 2 parts to lying excuses? i always thought there was one. the version i heard is when birdy talks about making love on the beach, holdin a woman for the police and giving a woman 2g's for a sandwhich and coffee. let me know where i can find part 2 (or part 1). thx!

salty

Yes that is the part 1, the part 2 is when the woman is lying about the man he come home and meet in the house name frank is her cousin and he dont have to worry by time he go to work and come back the man gun be long gone. I was told it name lying excuses 2, dont know if you have another name for it.

Yes true is phillip my dear the song name, i never got to download the whole song, i had to end up buying a sparrow CD for that. I saw Sparrow perform that song, slatfish and the 3 medleys live and i never laughed so much in my life.

My grand mother did love "Ten to one is Murder", and I have grown to love it as well.

I hear putow pow and de crowd start tuh scatter
Ten to one is murder
Dey say how I push dey gyal from Grenada
Ten to one is murder
Well de leader of de gang was a very good pelter...

Those were the days of lyrics.
