Spoken: This station...rules the nation!

Yeah, yeah, yeah go back to the island boy

Wake up early one morning

Kiss my mama goodbye

Goin' back to the island

Said don't worry mama, don't cry

We're livin' on the island stable

I sure hope that she's still able

To go to the sea around 5 o'clock

I'll stand at the bow and see the dock

Out in the fields from dawn 'til dusk

Swimmin' in the blue hole is a must

That island where I was born

First thing I will do is grown some corn

Wake up early one morning

Kiss my mama goodbye

Goin' back to the island

Said don't worry mama, don't cry

We're cooking outside the iron pot

I was young when I learned I haven't forgot

I don't know where they walkin'

Old folks smoking pipe and talking

Saturday night we're gonna dance and sway

Shake my belly, do the all ding

People don't you understand

Live like a king and be a happy man

Wake up early one morning

Kiss my mama goodbye

Goin' back to the island

Said don't worry mama, don't cry

Go back to the Island, boy

Are you ready?

How you gonna get there?

Banana boat

Are you ready?

How you gonna get there?

go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go

We got to go to Nassau

Go to New Usa

Go to Cat Island, Long Key, and Cuba

Go down to Freeport

Go to New Guinea

Go to Long Island

And then Ratingua

Wake up early one morning

Kiss my mama goodbye

Goin' back to the island

Said don't worry mama, don't cry

I got to go, I got to go, I got to go back to the island

I got to go, I got to go, I got to go back to the island

I got to go, I got to go, I got to go back to the island

I got to go, I got to go, I got to go back to the island

Wake up early one morning

Kiss my mama goodbye

Goin' back to the island

Said don't worry mama, don't cry
