The
life of steel pan -
Is what I choose
And it breaking new
grounds -
That is
now taught in schools
all over
My life
I have given
To
make my contribution
And today I am so
proud - To be a Panman

Are some names I
must mention
For
their contribution

This thing call Pan,
have me so amuse
With pan sticks in hand,
how could I lose
Out of oppression
The steel pan came from
A
majestic feat By our
twin Island
This
thing called Pan, captivate
meh soul
When
I start to play I
does lose control
Just
give me a Tenor ah
Bass or ah Guitar
With
a melody -
sweet than
Brown sugar (like this
