Island in the Sun - Four Jacks[00:00:00]
This is my island in the sun[00:00:09]
Where my people have toiled since time begun[00:00:12]
I may sail on many a sea[00:00:17]
Her shores will always be home to me[00:00:20]
Oh island in the sun[00:00:25]
Willed to me by my father's hand[00:00:29]
All my days I will sing in praise[00:00:33]
Of your forest waters your shining sand[00:00:36]
When morning breaks the heaven on high[00:00:49]
I lift my heavy load to the sky[00:00:53]
Sun comes down with a burning glow[00:00:57]
Mingles my sweat with the earth below[00:01:01]
Oh island in the sun[00:01:06]
Willed to me by my father's hand[00:01:09]
All my days I will sing in praise[00:01:13]
Of your forest waters your shining sand[00:01:17]
I see woman on bended knee[00:01:30]
Cutting cane for her family[00:01:34]
I see man at the water side[00:01:38]
Casting nets at the surging tide[00:01:42]
Oh island in the sun[00:01:46]
Willed to me by my father's hand[00:01:50]
All my days I will sing in praise[00:01:54]
Of your forest waters your shining sand[00:01:57]
I never soul the day will come[00:02:10]
When I can't awake to the sound of drum[00:02:14]
Never let me miss carnival[00:02:18]
With calypso songs philosophical[00:02:22]
Oh island in the sun[00:02:27]
Willed to me by my father's hand[00:02:30]
All my days I will sing in praise[00:02:34]
Of your forest waters your shining sand[00:02:38]
