Cherry oh, Cherry oh, baby
Cherry oh, Cherry oh, baby
Don't you know I'm in love with you
If you don't believe it's true
What else is there for me to do?
So long I've been waiting
For you to come right in
And now that we are together
Please make my joy come over

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Cherry, oh, Cherry, oh, baby
Don't you see I'm in love with you?
If you don't believe I do
Then why don't you try me?
I will never let you down
I will Never make you wear no frown
If you say that you love me madly
Well babe I'll accept you gladly

If you say that you love me madly
Well babe I'll accept you gladly

UB40

UB40 are an English reggae and pop band, formed in December 1978 in Birmingham. The band has had more than 50 singles in the UK Singles Chart. They have been nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album four times, and in 1984 were nominated for the Brit Award for Best British Group. UB40 have sold over 70 million records. The ethnic make-up of the band’s original line-up was diverse, with musicians of English, Irish, Jamaican, Scottish and Yemeni parentage.

Their hit singles include their debut “Food for Thought”, “Red Red Wine” and “Can’t Help Falling in Love”. Both of these also topped the UK Singles Chart, as did the band’s version of “I Got You Babe”. Their two most successful albums, Labour of Love (1983) and Promises and Lies (1993), reached number one on the UK Albums Chart.

On January 24, 2008, it was announced that Ali Campbell would be leaving the group after 30 years. It was reported by some Birmingham newspapers on 13 March 2008, that Maxi Priest would be the new lead singer of UB40 and had recorded a cover of Bob Marley’s “I Shot the Sheriff” with the band.
