LYRICS

Oh nana na, Oh na na na, Mmm aye aye

If yuh know ya, Den yuh know yea

We all on d ground
We holding it down
We open d story
Is Savannah J’Ouvert morning
J’Ouvert morning
Everybody coming in
Aye, we ready to ready to go

We go make dem jump
We go make dem tun up
We go make dem wine
We go make dem free up
It's d face ah bacchanal
In d sweet botanical
Dis Carnival I want yuh to find yuh way

Everybody on stage oh lad oi
If yuh coming down from the mountain oh gad oi
When d riddim beating in town
See we jumping on
The savannah grass, the savannah grass

Yuh could see it all when de dust raise oh lad oi
When d people tell yuh dey cannot wait oh gad oi
Feel d spirit jumping in town
We coming round

The savannah grass, the savannah grass

We up with the sun
We take over town
We making the most
Two days not enough no
Is love we feeling
Look everybody reveling .. aye
Dey ready to ready to go yea
We go make them jump
We go make them tun up
We go make dem wine
We go make dem free up
It's the place of bacchanal
Wit a vibe so magical
This carnival I want you to find yuh way

Everybody on stage oh lad oi
If yuh coming down from the mountain oh gad oi
When d riddim beating in town
See we jumping on
The savannah grass, the savannah grass

Yuh could see it all when de dust raise oh lad oi
When d ppl tell yuh dey cannot wait oh gad oi
Feel d spirit jumping in town
we coming round

The savannah grass, the savannah grass
