mighty sparrow - tourist paradise lyrics

come on over!

[verse 1]
i am always meeting people
who want me to recommend
a tourist resort for them
when they have vacation to spend
willingly i send them
where our tourists have fun like mad
the tourist paradise
in lovely barbados and trinidad

[chorus]
barbados, a real tourist island
trinidad, ideal for vacation
just to relax on the beach; is in the sunshine
you’ll find you have a wonderful time
drink rum; woman and man
have fun, bask in the sun!

[verse 2]
for snorkelling and sailing
water+skiing too
fishing in glass+bottom boats
see the fish eating barbecue
hotels built upsided+down
so unique in comfort and style
appetizing local dishes
service with a smile
[chorus]
in barbados, the favourite dish is cou cou
in trinidad, is cascadoo and callaloo
jump in the line, the weather is always fine
it’s time to leave your worries behind
drink rum; woman and man
have fun, roll in the sand!

come on over!

[verse 3]
calypsoes and steel band
will tell you it’s carnival
beauty queens parading
you can’t miss this festival
visit some lord’s castle
or sir walter raleigh’s pitch lake
don’t forget your camera now
plenty pictures to take

[chorus]
come on, you are all invited
come on, you will be delighted
just walk around and see why the pirates found
the town to be such a hunting+ground
drink rum; woman and man
have fun, bask in the sun!
[verse 4]
horse+racing and golfing
light aeroplanes to fly
sunken ships with treasures
find one; you’re rich ’til you die
there’s no doubt about it
very proudly we advertise
barbados and sweet trinidad
is where the tourists call paradise

[chorus]
barbados, for duty+free liquor
trinidad, perfumes and jewellery is much cheaper
how can you resist an opportunity like this
mr. tourist, sparrow now insist
drink rum; woman and man
have fun, make love on the sand!
