Lyrics

Barbados, Barbados
The land of flying fish and potatoes
Barbados, Barbados
The land of flying fish and potatoes
What a beautiful island
Tourists go there for their vacation
But I go there annually
'Cause I love the people's hospitality
Let me tell her now
Lilliana, Lilliana darling
Please divorce your husband
If I have to swim or sell my clothes
I'm going back to the island of Barbados
We wake in the morning
To see the salt sea shining
We wash in the ocean
Yes, and make love in the sunshine
All day we're together
In the sun and stormy weather
And together we want to stay
That's why the people hear me say
Let me tell her now
Lilliana, Lilliana darling
Please divorce your husband
If I have to swim or sell my clothes
I'm going back to the island of Barbados
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
Hey!
Let me tell her now
Lilliana, Lilliana darling
Please divorce your husband
If I have to swim or sell my clothes
I'm going back to the island of Barbados
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
