Lyrics

[Intro]
Islands in the sun
Islands in the fun
[Verse 1]
Welcome, welcome one and all to the land of fete
Trini to de bone, Bago to de bone
When it come to bacchanal, well, they can't beat we yet
Trini to de bone, Bago to de bone
Look
[Verse 2]
Sweet women parade abundantly
The brethren, they're full of energy
Some people say God is a Trini
Paradise and all convincingly
God gave us a spirit, fiery
But nothing in the world don't bother we
But look a smart man gone with we money
We still come out and mash up the party
[Chorus]
Sweet, sweet T and T, oh, how I love up this country
Sweet, sweet T and T, no place in this world I'd rather be
Oh, how I love up me country
Sweet, sweet T and T, all this sugar can't be good for me
Oh-oh, from Toco to Caroni
Oh-oh, Maraval to Sans Souci
Oh-oh, from Scarborough to Coco Reef
Oh-oh, profiling on Fredrick Street
Oh, how I love up this country
Sweet, sweet T and T, no place in this world I'd rather be
Sweet, sweet T and T, oh, how I love up me country
Sweet, sweet T and T
[Verse 3]
We come from the place where the people nah need real energy
Trini to de bone, Bago to de bone
You can get a beach and the sun, but the heat really come from we
Trini to de bone, Bago to de bone
[Verse 4]
You can't miss a real Trini roti
But look a crab runnin' from a curry
The tasaranpanya calling me
Well, I've got to get there in a hurry
There's no place like home, some people say
Though some have to leave to make their way
But in their hearts, I know their destiny
To come home and big up the country
[Chorus]
Sweet, sweet T and T, Lord, how I love up this country
No place in this world I'd rather be
Lord, how I love up me country, yeah, yeah, yeah
All this sugar can't be good for me
Oh-oh, from Couva to Signal Hill
Oh-oh, Arima to Charlotteville
Oh-oh, Matelot down to Port of Spain
Oh-oh yeah, we playin the sun or rain
Sweet, sweet T and T, oh, how I love up this country
Sweet, sweet T and T, no place in this world I'd rather be
[Bridge]
Look a Trini gyal, she breaking away
Tobago gyal, oh, what a bacchanal
De men gone wild, de wickedest style
De gyal look back, dey on de attack
De style just change, man re-arrange
De fete gone clear, 'cause nothing can compare to a Trini rising
No, no, no, nothing can compare to a Trini rising
No, no, no
[Verse 5]
As crazy as we might seem to be
We still fight to be a family
Indian, African, or a Chiney
Syrian, French-Creole, or Portuguese
We're blessed with a spirit, fiery
Some people say God is a Trini
Sweet women parade abundantly
Now, the problem is plain to see
[Chorus]
Sweet, sweet T and T, oh, how I love up me country
Sweet, sweet T and T, there's no place on Earth I'd rather be
Sweet, sweet T and T, oh, how I love up me country
Sweet, sweet T and T, all this sugar can't be good for me
Oh-oh, West Mooring to Locirot
Oh-oh, from Sando to Mayaro
Oh-oh, from Penal to Grand Riviére
Oh-oh, sweetness in abundance everywhere
Oh, how I love up me country
[Outro]
Sweet T and T
