Back To The Island

This station rules the nation



Come on

Come on

Ya

Ya

Here we go

Ya

Ya

Go back to the island boy



Wake up early one morning

Kiss my mama goodbye

Going back to the island

I'll see ya

Don't worry mama

Don't cry



Ya

Everybody

Let's do it



Be leaving on the island stable

I sure hope that she's still able

Going to sea around 5 o'clock

I'll stand at the bow and see the dock out

Out in the fields from dawn 'til dusk

Swimming in the blue hole is a must

That island where I was born

First thing I will do is grow some corn



Wake up early one morning

Kiss my mama goodbye

Going back to the island

I'll see ya

Don't worry mama

Don't cry



Been cooking outside in the iron pot

So young when I learned

I haven't forgot how to cast

And walking old folks smoking 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



Wake up early one morning

Kiss my mama goodbye

Going back to the island

I'll see ya

Don't worry mama

Don't cry



Go back to the island boy



Are you ready

How ya going to go there

By mail boat



Are you ready

How ya going to go there

Going back to the island
