Lyrics Calypso Music - David Rudder

Can you hear a distant drum
Bouncing on the laughter
Of a melody
(Yeah yeah)
And does the rhythm tell you
Come come come come
Does your spirit do a dance
To this symphony
(Yeah yeah)
Does it tell you that your heart
Is afire
(Oh yeah)
And does it tell you that your pain
Is a liar
(Oh yeah)
Does it wash away all your unlovely
Well are you ready for
A brand new discovery

Calypso
Calypso

I said that I am the seed of the Growling Tiger now
I've got to sing woy yeah yah woh yeah yah woh yeah
Calypso

It is a living vibration
Rooted deep within
My Caribbean belly
Lyrics to make a politician cringe
Or turn a woman's body into jelly
(Shake it mama shake it mama)
It is a sweet soca music
Calypso
You coulda never refuse it
Calypso
It make you shake like a shango now

You don't know

Whoooaaa yeah
Ahhhhh

I can still hear Lion roar
Through Greenwich Village
While Executor kills them dead
At the Ribbon Blue
Lord Invader conquers Berlin
From their hearts this time
And Lord Kitchener making old London
Feel so new
Beginner and Terror too
Fitzroy Coleman's fingers
Dancing on the French
(Dancing on the French)
And when you think that he through
He ain't start nothin yet
(Ain't start nothin yet)
And we've been all graced by the presence
Of Sparrow
Whooa
When Slinger done with they tail
Hear them shouting
Don't go
Sparrow don't go
Why

I said and I am the seed of the seed of the Spoiler now
I want to fall
Woy yeah yah woh yeah yah woh yeah
Calypso

I want to rise

From the time the first bamboo cut
And we drag it down
From up in the St Ann's hills
From the day
The first shangwe leave the band
The real jammin start
And today
We jammin still
Still
Creating rhythm that could be deadly like Headley
Only this time
Is with the rhythm the melody we're sendin
They soul to the boundary
From the bongo drum
To the roll of the tassa
Well ever since Europe come
And she make us a vassal
We jammin it
