Lyrics

I see your teeth flash, Jamaican honey so sweet Down where Lexington cross 47th Street Oh, she's a big girl, she's standing six-foot three Turning tricks for the dudes in the big city Island girl What you wanting with the white man's world? Island girl Black boy want you in his island world He want to take you from the racket boss He want to save you, but the cause is lost Island girl, island girl, island girl Tell me what you wanting with the white man's world Well she's black as coal, but she burn like a fire And she wrap herself around you like a well-worn tire You feel her nail scratch your back just like a rake, oh-oh He one more gone, he one more John who make the mistake Island girl What you wanting with the white man's world? Island girl Black boy want you in his island world He want to take you from the racket boss He want to save you, but the cause is lost Island girl, island girl, island girl Tell me what you wanting with the white man's world Island girl What you wanting with the white man's world? Island girl Black boy want you in his island world He want to take you from the racket boss He want to save you, but the cause is lost Island girl, island girl, island girl Tell me what you wanting with the white man's Tell me what you wanting with the white man's Tell me what you wanting with the white man's
