T&T, T&T, Here comes our second Olympic gold
And what ah time for it to happen
When we are celebrating our Golden Jubilee
That’s gold for gold, young Javelin champ
Keshorn Walcott: - Toco boy

Verse 1

When the team of athletes left for London
No one knows this young man
Just 19 years old Junior Champion of the world
Will add to it an Olympic gold

Chorus

It’s gold! its gold!
Keshorn Walcott brings back home
It’s gold! It’s gold!
The youngest javelin champ of this world

Bridge

Keshorn Walcott, the Toco boy
Known in Trinbago as the Golden boy
Keshorn Walcott brings back home
Another, Olympic gold

Verse 2

After his triumph at the Olympics
The Prime Minister saw it fit
Declaring of course, the 13th of August
As a remembrance day to all of us

We all shout gold for T&T,
More gold for the Golden Jubilee,
The Country was at hold when the story did unfold,
It was the biggest upset in our quest for gold.
