You’re My Jamaica

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Every day, I read ads in the paper Sayin', "Come to the islands" (Come to the islands) Bikinied ladies, sweet rum drinks They'll keep you smilin' (Down in the islands) But I've got calypso music on the record at home When it comes to the warmth and the sunshine, well, I got my own [Chorus] You're my Jamaica You're where I wanna be You're my island when I'm bein' tossed on a stormy sea My heavenly haven Where I could spend eternity You're my Jamaica, you're paradise to me [Verse 2] White sunny sands, palm trees, and tans It sounds so invitin' (Sounds so inviting) Limbo dancin' and starlight romancin' It's all so excitin' (Come on down, come on down, come on down) But I've got my flowery shirt and rum punch in my hand And my own exotic lover in my native land [Chorus] You're my Jamaica You're where I wanna be You're my island when I'm bein' tossed on a stormy sea My heavenly haven Where I could spend eternity You're my Jamaica, you're paradise to me You're my Jamaica You're where I wanna be You're my island when I'm bein' tossed on a stormy sea My heavenly haven Where I could spend eternity You're my Jamaica, you're paradise to me You're my Jamaica You're where I wanna be You're my island when I'm bein' tossed on a stormy sea
