Verse 1
I wake up and ah
drink a beer, It’s Carnival in
the air ’Cuz it’s fete day and
night, At this time of year,
I done save up meh money, And
I take leave early, I can’t wait
to fete, To feel the bacchanal
and the ecstasy,
Chorus
So let we jump
And break away, Come let we jump
for joy and celebrate! Lets dash
away all the stress, And bask in
the happiness, Let your spirit
free, This is the season to be
happy!!
Verse 2
Every big truck
playing the hits, Every woman
shake their hips, Children eating
sno-cone, And licking their lips,
This is Trinbago spirit, And we
living in it, Such a joy to see,
We living in unity in T and T!
Verse 3 I wake
up and I drink a rum, And walk
out in the hot sun, Cause it’s
worst behavior, Till the season
done! It’s the time for ecstasy,
And serendipity, So if I lie down
on the pavement, Don’t disturb me
because I’m free!
