Brrrrrrrrrrrrrr, hah, hah
This is one of my favorite Charley Pride songs:
Charley, wherever you are, buddy, this one's for you.
Every day I read ads in the papers, sayin' "Come to the islands.
"Bikini ladies, sweet rum drinks, they'll keep you smilin'."
I got Calypso music on my record at home.
When it comes to the warmth an' the sunshine, I got my own.
You're my Jamaica, where I wanna be.
You're my island when I'm bein' tossed on a stormy sea.
My Heavenly haven where I could spend eternity.
You're my Jamaica: you're paradise to me.
Ah, Charley Pride, eat your heart out.
I ain't gonna do that but I'm gonna 'bout see what I can do.
Ha, ha, ha. Well, Charley, let me get out of your way.
White sunny sand, palm trees an' tango sounds so invitin'.
(Sounds so invitin'.)
Limbo dancin' an' starlight romancin, it's all so excitin'.
(C'mon down, C'mon down, C'mon down.)
I got my flowery shirt an' rum punch in my hand.
(Rum punch in my hand.)
Found exotic lover in my native land.
Let's do it together, let's do it.
All right.
You're my Jamaica, where I wanna be.
(Yeah.)
You're my island when I'm bein' tossed on a stormy sea.
(I got a good back-up singer.)
(I heard the best.)
My Heavenly haven,
(I travelled with Charley pride for years.)
I could spend eternity.
(You learned pretty good, man.)
You're my Jamaica: you're paradise to me.
Brrrrrrrrrr.
You're my Jamaica,
(Who are you talkin' about?)
(I'm talkin' 'bout you.)
(Oh no. I thought you're talkin' about Roseen. You're talkin 'bout me!)
You're my island when I'm bein' tossed on a stormy sea.
(Yeah.)
My Heavenly haven, where I could spend eternity.
(Can you do this Charley, move you hips? Move your.)
You're my Jamaica:
(Not that end.)
you're paradise to me.
You're my Jamaica,
(You sing, you sing in harmony.)
Where I wanna be.
(You call that harmony, ha ha ha?)
You're my island when I'm bein' tossed on a stormy sea.
(Yeah, one more time.)
My Heavenly haven where I could spend eternity.
(Not me, not you.)
