West Indian Revelation

I spent last summer on an island

In the Mediterranean Sea

The sunshine was so bright

Yes you know it burned me down

To my soul

I wish everybody

That I had to love was there with me

What a time, baby what a time

I had when I was there

Mmm, mm, oo, mm

First I'm an African man

Second I'm black Jamaican

Third I'm black American

First I'm an African man

Second I'm black Jamaican

Third I'm black American

First I'm an African man

Second I'm black Jamaican

Third I'm black American

Shake it shake it shake it shake it

Shake it shake it let your body swim

Shake it shake it shake it shake it

Shake it shake it baby take a pull of rum again

If you have not had enough of it in your life

You just cannot have your fill

Mmm, ooo, mmm

First I'm an African man

Second I'm black Jamaican

Third I'm black American
