This station, rules the nation!
|
Come on, come on, yaaa, yaaa!
|
Here we go, yaaa, yaaa, go back to the island, boy!
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
|
Wake up early one morning
|
Kiss my mama goodbye
|
Goin' back to the island,
|
I'll see ya, don't worry mama,
|
Don't cry, yaaaa, everybody, lets do it.[End of chorus.]
|
|
Be leaving on the island stable
|
I sure hope that she's still able
|
Goin' to sea around 5 'o' clock
|
I'll stand at the bow and see the dock out
|
In the fields from dawn,
|
Til dusk, swimmin' in the blue hole is a must.
|
That island, where I was born
|
First thing I will do is grow some corn
|
|
[Chorus...]
|
|
Been cookin' outside in the iron pot
|
So young when I learned, I haven't forgot,
|
Out to cast, and walking old folks
|
Smokin' pipes and talking
|
Saturday night we're gonna dance and sway
|
Shake my bell, do the dawn day people
|
Don't you understand, live like a king
|
And be a happy man
|
|
[Chorus...]
|
|
[TAYLOR & ZAC:] "Go back to the island boy"
|
Ya, ya, ya, ya,
|
[TAYLOR & ZAC:] "Are you ready? How ya goin' get there?"
|
[ISAAC:] "By mail boat"
|
[TAYLOR & ZAC:] "Are you ready?" How ya goin' get there?"
|
[ISAAC:] "By mail boat!"
|
|
A go, a go, a go, a go,a go, a go, a go,
|
A go, a go, a go, a go, a go,
|
We got to go down to Nassau, go to New USA,
|
Go to Cat Island, Long Key and X-Zuba,
|
Go down to Frequia, go to New Guinea,
|
Go to Long Island and Latina
|
|
[Chorus...]
|
|
ya....ya....ya....ya....I got to go, I got to go,
|
I got to go back to the island
|
I got to go, I got to go, I got to go back
|
To the island, I got to go back, I got to go back,
|
I got to go back to the island
|
I got to go, I got to go, I got to go back to the island
|
|
[Chorus...]
|
|
Ya....ya....ya....ya....
