Van Dyke Parks - Ode To Tobago lyrics

rate me

Come follow me down to a tiny land

Things to see, friends to meet

You would understand

Darlin get up, let us pack up

For the journey it's a nonstop

It's a date

Sweetheart don't be late

Come, let me go, let me go to Tobago

That paradise, found by Robinson Crusoe

And it is said, it's the land of tomorrow

Princess Margaret say, come Tobago for holiday

Now the whole world say, come Tobago for holiday

Your native friend surely would be a host

And show you some of the beauties from coast to coast

As you look down curiously at the gray sand and the blue sea

You'll agree, it's just heavenly

For rare beauty well it's my belief

There is no other place like the Buccoo Reef

Where the fishes seems to gather

Just to welcome every stranger

It is grand

On this Crusoe land
