David Rudder - Rally Round the West Indies lyrics
For ten long years We ruled the cricket world Now the rule seems coming to an end But down here Just a ***** in the armour Is enough, enough to lose a friend Some of the old generals have retired and gone And the runs don't come by as they did before But when the Toussaints go the Dessalines come We've lost the battle but yet we will win the war Chorus: Rally, rally round the West Indies Now and forever Rally, rally round the West Indies Never say never Pretty soon the runs are going to flow like water Bringing so much joy to every son and daughter Say we're going to rise again like a raging fire As the sun shines you know we gonna take it higher Rally, rally round the West Indies Now and forever Rally, rally round the West Indies Way Down Under a warrior falls Michael Holding falls in the heat of the battle "Michael shoulda left long time!" I heard an angry brother shout Caribbean man, that, that, that is the root of our trouble In these tiny theatres of conflict and confusion Better known as the isles of the West Indies We already know who brought us here And who created this confusion So I'm begging, begging my people please Chorus Now they are making restrictions and laws to spoil our beauty But in the end we shall prevail This is not just cricket, this thing goes beyond the boundary It's up to you and me to make sure that they fail Soon we must take a side or be lost in the rubble In a divided world that don't need islands no more Are doomed forever to be at somebody's mercy? Little keys can open up mighty doors Chorus |
