| Lyrics |
Ch; On this island, beautiful island,
in the ocean, Atlantic Ocean
Island, beautiful isle,
in the ocean, Atlantic Ocean
Oh when the gombeys are leaping and prancing
and the steel pan is playing a song
even the waves in the ocean are dancing
and the sky is singing along
Ch:
The long tails are looping and swooping
and the tree frogs are creaking at night
I'ld like to take you to a summer beach party,
we'll be dancing until daylight
Ch:
And one Sunday night at Chewstick
when the band is grooving along
I'l like to play you some special music
and sing you this island song
Ch:
Now do you hear the birds they are calling
calling, calling all to see
the beauty of Mother Nature
now listen, now listen to me--- |
