The Islands

Wake up in the morning sun Picking lemon leaves for tea Sipping in the island breeze There's no other place for me Basking in love with everyone This is how life is in the islands Brown skin Black hair everywhere Oh so beautiful We're singing from the islands La la la la la la We've come from the islands La la la la la la We're singing from the islands La la la la la la We've come from the islands La la la la la la Wake up in the morning sun Picking lemon leaves for tea Sipping in the island breeze Took the village to raise me Take me back to the roots Take me back to the roots to the roots Oh we're singing We've come from the islands I have come from the islands We're singing from the islands La la la la la la We've come from the islands La la la la la la We're singing from the islands La la la la la la We've come from the islands La la la la la la We're singing from the islands La la la la la la We've come from the islands La la la la la la We're singing from the islands La la la la la la We've come from the islands La la la la la la
