Adieu to My Island Lyrics by The Kingston Trio

0

I must bid adieu to my island. Leave the nights by the sea. My heart is heavy inside me. Bow down just like a palm tree
The nights may be warm in Hawaii and the sun may shine on Rome
But the steel bands are playing in Trinidad and my heart tells me that's home
I must bid adieu to my island. Leave the nights by the sea. My heart is heavy inside me. Bow down just like a palm tree
I've traveled around on the sailing ships from Barbados to Bombay
But the laughter in the market in Trinidad tells me that's where I should stay
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
The sun's comin' out of the ocean now, and in an hour I'll be gone
Watch from the mountain when the ships sail in for the one I'll be on
I must bid adieu to my island. Leave the nights by the sea. My heart is heavy inside me. Bow down just like a palm tree
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
