EEK-A-MOUSE – D’yer Mak’er (Led Zepellin) | Reggae | Live on David Letterman (1992)

Eek-A-Mouse (born Ripton Joseph Hylton, 19 November 1957) is a Jamaican reggae musician. He is one of the earliest artists to be described as a “singjay”. Eek-A-Mouse is well known for pioneering his own style of scatting, differing from the-then toasting deejays in the 80s. He adopted the stage name “Eek-A-Mouse” in 1979, taking the name of a racehorse he always bet on; it was a nickname his friends had used for some time.

Oh oh oh oh oh oh You don’t have to go oh oh oh oh You don’t have to go oh oh oh oh You don’t have to go.

Ay ay ay ay ay ay All those tears I cry ay ay ay ay All those tears I cry oh oh ay ay Baby please don’t go.

I’ll never let you love me and leave so mad mad mad When I read the news that it broke It made me feel sad sad sad.

But I still love you so I don’t want you to go I love you- ooh baby I love you.

Oh oh oh oh oh oh Every breath I take oh oh oh oh oh Every move I make oh oh oh oh oh Baby please don’t go.

Ay ay ay ay ay ay You hurt me to my soul ay ay ay ay ay You hurt me to my soul ay ay ay ay ay Darling please, baby, please don’t go.

When I read the letter It mad me feel mad mad mad When I read the news that it broke It made me feel sad sad sad.

But I still love you so I don’t want you to go I love you- ooh baby I love you.

Oh oh oh oh oh oh You don’t have to go oh oh oh oh oh You don’t have to go oh oh oh oh oh (Baby please don’t go)
