David Rudder Lyrics

hey i'm trying to get the lyrics for "Calypso Music" by David Rudder

Hope these are correct and complete



Can you hear a distant drum

Bouncing on the laughter of a melody

And does the rhythm tell you ..come,come,come

Does your spirit do a dance to this symphony

Does it tell you that your heart is afire

Does it tell you that your pain is a liar

Does it wash away all your unlovely

And are you ready for a brand new discovery.

CHORUS:

Calypso, calypso, ..Oh..Oh..Oh

Calypso Music ..yea..yea (repeat)

Singing wow, ..ya..ya..ya calypso (repeat).

Ah say I'm the seed of the Growling Tiger now

I got to sing calypso.



It is a living vibration

Rooted deep within my Caribbea nbelly

Lyrics to make a politician grin

Or turn a woman's body into jelly

It is a sweet soca music ........ calypso

You could ah never refuse it......calypso

It make you shake like a Shango ..now calypso

Why it is you shaking, you dont know

That's calypso.

CHORUS: ( change Growling Tiger to Atilla)



I can still hear the Lion roar

Thru Greenwich village

While Executor kills them dead at the Rainbow Blue

Lord Invader conquers Berlin but their hearts this time,

And Kitchener make Ole London feel so new

Beginner and Terror Too

Fitzroy Coleman fingers dancing on the fret

And when you think that he thru

He aint start nothing yet

Carnigie hall graced by the presence of Sparrow

And when slinger done with they tail

Hear them signing ....Sparrow , dont go

Sparrow dont go.



CHORUS: (this time replace Atilla with Spoiler)

From the time the first bamboo come

And we drag it down from the St. Anns hill

From the day de first chantwell lead the band

The real jamming start that day

And we jamming still

Creating rhythm that could be deadly like Headley

Only this time

Is the melody that sending they soul to the boundary

From the bongo drum

To the roll of the tassa

Ever since Europe come and She make massa bassa

We jamming it!

CHORUS

We gonna sing it in London

we gonna sing it in America

We gonna sing it in Africa

We gonna sing it in Europe

We gonna sing the calypso (repeat)

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
thanks much

You're welcome
