David Rudder – Calypso Music Lyrics

Artist: David Rudder
Song: Calypso Music

Can you hear a distant drum
Bouncing on the laughter of a melody ( yea, yea)
And does the rhythm tell you , come,come,come
Does your spirit do a dance to this symphony ( yea, yea)

Does it tell you that your heart is afire (oh yeah)
Does it tell you that your pain is a liar (oh yeah)
Does it wash away all your unlovely
And are you ready for a brand new discovery

Calypso, calypso (oh oh oh)
Calypso Music (yea yea)
Calypso, calypso (oh oh oh)
Calypso Music (yea yea)

Singing wo yea yea yea
Wo yea yea yea, wo yea calypso
Singing wo yea yea yea
Wo yea yea yea, wo yea calypso

Ah say that I am the seed of the Growling Tiger now
I got to sing, Wo yea yea yea
Wo yea yea yea, wo yea calypso
It is a living vibration

Rooted deep within my Caribbean belly
Lyrics to make a politician grin
Or turn a woman’s body into jelly (shake it up, shake it up)
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

Calypso, calypso
Calypso Music (yea yea)
Calypso, calypso
Calypso Music

Singing wo yea yea yea
Wo yea yea yea, wo yea calypso
Singing wo yea yea yea
Wo yea yea yea, wo yea calypso

Ah say that I am de seed of the Growling Tiger now
I got to sing calypso
Wo yea yea yea
Wo yea yea yea, wo yea calypso

I can still hear Lion roar
Through Greenwich village
While Executor kills them dead at the Ribbon Blue
Lord Invader conquers Berlin but their hearts this time

And Lord Kitchener make it, Ole London feel so new
Beginner and Terror Too
Fitzroy Coleman fingers dancing on the fret
And when you think that he through

He ain’t start nothing yet
Carnigie hall graced by the presence of Sparrow (oh oh oh)
And when Slinger done with they tail
Hear them shouting ‘don’t go!’

Sparrow, ‘don’t go!’
Why?
Calypso
Calypso (oh oh)

Calypso Music (yea yea)
Calypso, calypso
Calypso Music
Singing wo yea yea yea

Wo yea yea yea, wo yea calypso
Singing wo yea yea yea
Wo yea yea yea, wo yea calypso
Ah say that I am de seed, am de seed of the Spider now

I got to sing calypso
Wo yea yea yea
Wo yea yea yea, wo yea calypso
I want to rise, I want to rise

From the time the first bamboo come
And we drag it down from up in the St. Anns hill
From the day the first chantwell lead the band
The real jamming start that day

And we jamming still, still!
Creating rhythm dat could be deadly like Headley
Only this time
The spirit and de melody that sending they soul to the boundary

From the bongo drum to de roll of de tassa
Ever since Europe come and She make massa bassa
We jamming it!
Calypso

Calypso (oh oh)
Calypso Music (yea yea)
Calypso, calypso
Calypso Music

Singing wo yea yea yea
Wo yea yea yea, wo yea calypso
Singing wo yea yea yea
Wo yea yea yea, wo yea calypso

Singing wo yea yea yea
Wo yea yea yea, wo yea calypso
Singing wo yea yea yea
Wo yea yea yea, wo yea calypso

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)
