Lyrics
[verse]
Sister brought a mango from the market stand
Ate the whole thing sitting in the sand
Woke up feeling funny in her tummy and her head
Called her brother on the phone instead
[chorus]
Put the fruit in a bucket, mix it with the ice
Drink it all together and it might be nice
Doctor on the phone line, giving her advice
Put the fruit in a bucket, mix it with the ice
[verse]
Brother said "now sister what's the matter with you"
"Ate a mango and I don't know what to do"
He said "sister you've been in the sun too long"
"Take this cure and sing a silly song"
[chorus]
Put the fruit in a bucket, mix it with the ice
Drink it all together and it might be nice
Doctor on the phone line, giving her advice
Put the fruit in a bucket, mix it with the ice
[bridge]
Ooh wee, the island's spinning round
Ooh wee, she's dancing on the ground
Ooh wee, the mango made her groan
Ooh wee, but now she's not alone
[chorus]
Put the fruit in a bucket, mix it with the ice
Drink it all together and it might be nice
Doctor on the phone line, giving her advice
Put the fruit in a bucket, mix it with the ice
