miss tourist - eddy grant lyrics
a tourist dame, i met her the night she came
well, she curiously asking about my country
she said, “i heard about bacch-n-l and the trinidad carnival
so i want to jump in the fun
eddy grant, show me how it is done”
i say, “come in town j’ouvert morning
find yourself in a band
watch the way how the natives moving
hug up tight with a man
sing along with the tunes they playing
and now and again, keep shouting
play mas bacch-n-l, miss tourist
this is carnival”
well, the following day, we went to maracas bay
and every step we walk, she’d start with this j’ouvert talk
she said, “from what i’ve been told
carnival is out of this world
just the thought is worrying me brain
well, let me hear that lesson again”
so i said
“come in town j’ouvert morning
find yourself in a band
watch the way how the natives moving
hug up tight with a man
sing along with the tunes they playing
and now and again, keep shouting
play mas bacch-n-l, miss tourist
this is carnival”
alright
you’re doing alright
j’ouvert morn, you’d swear it was here she’s born
holding hands, jumping in a j’ouvert band
when the rhythm hot up the place
she said “play mas”, shaking she waist
would you phone hotel normandie
and tell them don’t leave no breakfast for me?
so i said, baby
“come in town j’ouvert morning
find yourself in a band
watch the way how the natives moving
hug up tight with a man
sing along with the tunes they playing
now and again, keep shouting
play mas bacch-n-l, miss tourist
this is carnival”
well, she turn and say
i now feel to break away
she said, “come on man”
and grab me in front of the band
mama, yo, when we reached independence square
she kicked and she raised she dress in the air
bawling “bacch-n-l, bacch-n-l
i am the queen of this carnival”
i say, “come in town j’ouvert morning, come on
find yourself in a band
watch the way how the natives moving
hug up tight with a man
sing along with the tunes they playing
now and again, keep shouting
play mas bacch-n-l, miss tourist
this is carnival”
can you hear?
“play mas bacch-n-l, miss tourist
this is carnival”
i like it
“play mas bacch-n-l, miss tourist
this is carnival”
oh, baby
“play mas bacch-n-l, miss tourist
this is carnival”
well, you feel it
“play mas bacch-n-l, miss tourist
this is carnival”
