가사

Well is big Federation
For a new little nation
On this occasion
We should have a big celebration
So Tom, Dick and Harry
I say to jump and be merry
Don't wait 'til tomorrow
Everybody sing now with Sparrow
Whether you're a damn Trinidadian
(We are as one!)
If they say you're a smart Barbadian
(We are as one!)
Get away from me you crazy Grenadian
(We are as one!)
I don't care if you're a bad Jamaican
(We are as one!)
Let us join together and love one another
(We are as one!)
If you're born in New York and your parents West Indian
(We are as one!)
Lovely Princess Margaret
Flew away on a carpet
Saying goodbye to the Queen
She is going to the Caribbean
She want to sign up the paper
Please don't leave it for later
So brother, strike up the steelband
And may God save the Queen of England
Whether you're a damn Trinidadian
(We are as one!)
And if they call you a smart Barbadian
(We are as one!)
Get away from me you greedy Jamaican
(We are as one!)
I don't care if you're a bad Grenadian
(We are as one!)
We go join together and love one another
(We are as one!)
If you're born in New York and your man is West Indian
(We are as one!)
Well they form a committee
With some fools on the city
To give a big, big reception
Man it was a proper jam session
But when they call for Calypso
Somebody said "bring the Sparrow"
But then they had to change the talk
Sparrow was quite up in New York
Singing 'bout them bad Trinidadian
(We are as one!)
Man, if they call you a smart Grenadian
(We are as one!)
Get away from me you greedy Barbadian
(We are as one!)
I don't care if you're a bad Jamaican
(We are as one!)
Let us join together and love one another
(We are as one!)
If you're born in New York and your wife is West Indian
(We are as one!)
When the Princess had to go
She caught the plane at Piarco
She turned around, I wondered why
But she had teardrops in she eye
She fell in love with Trinidad
And that is why she was so sad
Before she board the aeroplane
Them West Indians start with this refrain
Even if you come from England
(We are as one!)
Yes, and they call you a smart Barbadian
(We are as one!)
Yes, you greedy Grenadian
(We are as one!)
Get away you bad Barbadian
(We are as one!)
We go join together and love one another
(We are as one!)
If you're born in New York and your husband West Indian
(We are as one!)
