mighty sparrow - a model nation lyrics
[verse 1]
the whole population of our little nation
is not a lot
but oh! what a mixture of races and culture
that’s what we’ve got
still no major indifference
of race, color, religion or finance
it’s amazing to you i’m sure
we didn’t get independence before
[chorus]
trinidad and tobago will always live on
colonialism gone, our nation is born… everybody
we go follow our leaders
they always do their best
oh yes, we want to achieve, we going to aspire
we bound to be a success
[verse 2]
it is a miraclе all these differеnt people
can dwell so well
you see, we are educated to love and forget hatred
you know, you know is so
you people who are foreign
ah got a message to give you when you going
spread the word anywhere you pass
tell the world there’s a model nation at last
[chorus]
trinidad and tobago will always live on
colonialism gone, our nation is born
we go follow our leaders
they always do their best
we want to achieve, i meself do aspire
we bound to be a success
[verse 3]
the revenue we make from oil and the pitch lake
is great, but wait
we got cocoa and copra, banana and sugar
coconuts, citrus
we may be small but we wealthy
pound for pound we’ll beat new york city
we got beaches and hotels built by hilton
our nation ain’t second to anyone
[chorus]
trinidad and tobago will always live on
colonialism gone, our nation is born
we go follow our leaders
they always do their best
in order to achieve, you got to aspire
and we bound to be a success
[verse 4]
you may not believe this but we didn’t achieve this
with floods of blood
it is leaders like butler, cipriani, and the doctor
they fight for what is right
so now i’m congratulating all our leaders
from the present back to the beginning
they have fought, now the battle is won
thanks for a good job and well done
[chorus]
trinidad and tobago will always live on
colonialism gone, our nation is born
we go follow our leaders
they always do their best
in order to achieve, ah know we got to aspire
and we bound to be a success
