As in the title track from the album:

Does anyone know what it's about? I know Johnny Osbourne's lyrics aren't the most complex but I don't actually know what 'Fally Lover' means and am curious. Love the album though, I got into it through Scientist's Extra Time tracks on the Wins the World Cup album. Can anyone help?
Jah bless

It's a folly lover. The girl he's interested doesn't treat him right.
I gave you my heart
and I gave you my soul
and now you gone you left me cold.
I merely asking for you to come on down.
I call you many times on the telephone.
Fally lover. You're always undercover. Ooh I say.
Fally lover. You're always undercover.
Uptown downtown all around town. Fally lover!

You broke my heart into so many pieces,
not even the carpenter just can't fix it.
I take it to the shoemaker yesterday,
and he said he ain't go no ????
What does he say there?

It's thread to sow.
The H is silent like when they say ting instead of thing.

Of course it's thread. Makes sense.

I only knew the word "thread" form forum discussions. Now I get it, thanks.

Ah wicked - cheers guys. Also wasn't sure if it was 'on the cover' or 'undercover', heh...
