Back To The Island
(I. Hanson, T. Hanson, Z. Hanson)
Spoken: This station...rules the nation!
Yeah, yeah, yeah go back to the island boy
Wake up early one morning
Kiss my mama goodbye
Goin' back to the island
Said don't worry mama, don't cry
We're livin' on the island stable
I sure hope that she's still able
To go to the 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 grown some corn
Wake up early one morning
Kiss my mama goodbye
Goin' back to the island
Said don't worry mama, don't cry
We're cooking outside the iron pot
I was young when I learned I haven't forgot
I don't know where they walkin'
Old folks smoking pipe and talking
Saturday night we're gonna dance and sway
Shake my belly, do the all ding
People don't you understand
Live like a king and be a happy man
Wake up early one morning
Kiss my mama goodbye
Goin' back to the island
Said don't worry mama, don't cry
Go back to the Island, boy
Are you ready?
How you gonna get there?
Banana boat
Are you ready?
How you gonna get there?
go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go
We got to go to Nassau
Go to New Usa
Go to Cat Island, Long Key, and Cuba
Go down to Freeport
Go to New Guinea
Go to Long Island
And then Ratingua
Wake up early one morning
Kiss my mama goodbye
Goin' back to the island
Said don't worry mama, don't cry
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, 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
Wake up early one morning
Kiss my mama goodbye
Goin' back to the island
Said don't worry mama, don't cry
