LYRICS

Verse 1


all over the world they talking pan
from canada holland and japan
it seem like the thing is in demand....woh..

i talking bout people of the world
old man and old woman boy and girl
it seems like the instrument is gold


as far as i see they coming from
didn't have a clue
pan travel so far out of my land
didn't know what to do

there no doubt the music of the steel
seen some far domain
but the birth place still will remain the same.

- Chorus

Trinidad......yeah !! .. ah feel de power de pan is sending
Trinbago.....yeah !!.. ah feel de power de pan creating
TNT........ yeah !!.. ah feel de power de pan vibrating
Sweet for soo ah feel de power de pan pulsating

ah voice from here
ah voice from there
ah hearing dem
ah hearing dem calling..., calling for de pan

when you see it's time for pan to roll
dey calling.....calling for de pan

Verse 2

I was in Toronto rama fest

Verse 3

I have plenty pride am telling you

but when i see them foreigners coming through

every year when rama comes around
ah whole set ah outsiders in town
and they playing pan like they own the town

with timing they jumping up and down
moving left ot right

they holding they head up in the sky
sticks they squeezing tight

i know that they waiting for the count
them it's breakaway
hope you get ah chance to see how they play....yeah


Chorus..


Dey calling...calling for de pan...!!
Dey calling...calling for de pan...!!

Composer Bio Composer and panist Miguel Reyes, who shares the same hometown with the late Aldwyn Roberts aka Lord Kitchener is from Arima in east Trinidad. And like Kitchener, Miguel - the last son of Elma Reyes - is also deeply involved with the culture of Trinidad and Tobago. The year 1980 saw Reyes relocating to Bermuda, and there becoming a member of a band called The Real Thing managed by nightclub owner Choy Aming. His involvement with music became rooted, and has been the mainstay in his life ever since.
