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
