DENYSE PLUMMER NAH LEAVING LYRICS
They say meh country so stressfull, so tense
With race hate, young jail bait, too much violence
Girl pack up and go, this sweet Trinbago
I tell dem no way (no way)
How de people small-minded, macoscious and loud
Of bobol and scandal they boastful and proud
Yet somehow I see, all this foolery
As window dressing, dey still ah blessing
You see ah just eat ah curry-cue
Peas, rice and cascadoux
Two crab and callaloo
Meh neighbor just gimme
Nah leaving (nah leaving)
Meh navel string so deep and freedom doh come cheap
Where else in de world you know
Sweet Pan and Calypso
People just overflow two days in the street
Nah leaving (nah leaving)
Is here wey conceive me, is here ah go dead
I see a people creative who must overcome
Make magic from old steel, from rusty old drum
So why should I fear, some tears here and there
I tell dem no way (no way)
Comradery so special like natural instinct
Dey meet you by de river, is come take ah drink
Unspoken but kind, no silent bad mind
So forget New York and and de old talk
You see ah just drink some babash brew
Puncheon rum and Mountain Dew
Ah hot plate ah Pelau too
Meh macomere just bring me
Nah leaving (nah leaving)
Meh navel string so deep and freedom doh come cheap
Where else in de world you know
Jump high then wine down low
And if you don't get on so, dey watch you silly
Nah leaving (nah leaving)
Is here wey conceive me, is here ah go dead
Mayaro, Maracas Bay (Nah Leaving)
Savannah wey children play (Nah Leaving)
De sorrel, de mauby bark (Nah Leaving)
De corn soup, de bake and shark (Nah Leaving)
De Oval, see Lara bat (Nah Leaving)
De picong, de tit-for-tat (Nah Leaving)
De ritual of Carnival (Nah Leaving)
De Soca Chutney Bachannal (Nah Leaving)
I wake up one morning and before I stretch
Is fry bake, my doubles, meh nostril done ketch
And there for my view, an ocean so blue
I going no where (no where)
Humming birds and black birds dat sing in de trees
Chaconia and spices dat pass in de breeze
Wild meat by de grap, agouti and lappe
In forrest grazing, it so amazing
You see ah just watch ah football match
Wey Trini and Yankee clash
So much fun, de balls dat lash
Meh head still dizzy
Nah leaving (nah leaving)
Meh navel string so deep and freedom doh come cheap
Where else in de world you know
Milk and de honey flow
Vagrants does bend down low and drink from ah drain
Nah leaving (nah leaving)
Is here wey conceive me, is here ah go dead
Barb wire, roll wire, we living in jail
Somehow I know, Denyse will prevail
As folks will recall, our problems are small
I going no where (no where)
De heart of my people is of solid gold
Of Soca dey move you with rythym and soul
So who want to leave, because dey believe
Dat out dey easy, I say dey crazy
You see ah just eat ah curry-cue
Peas, rice and cascadoux
Two cab and callaloo
Meh neighbor just gimme
Nah leaving (nah leaving)
Meh navel string so deep and freedom doh come cheap
Where else in de world you know
Sweet Pan and Calypso
People just overflow two days in the street
Nah leaving (nah leaving)
Is here wey conceive me, is here ah go dead
Mayaro, Maracas Bay (Nah Leaving)
Savannah wey children play (Nah Leaving)
De sorrel, de mauby bark (Nah Leaving)
De corn soup, de bake and shark (Nah Leaving)
De Oval, see Lara bat (Nah Leaving)
De picong, de tit-for-tat (Nah Leaving)
De ritual of Carnival (Nah Leaving)
De Soca Chutney Bachannal (Nah Leaving
I solemnly pledge to dedicate my life
To the service of God
And to my country.
I will honour my parents,
My teachers, my leaders and my elders,
And those in authority
I will be clean and honest in all my thoughts,
My words and my deeds.
I will strive, in everything I do
To work together with my fellowmen
Of every creed and race
For the greater happiness of all
And the honour and glory
Of my country.
