[00:00.00]Island In The Sun - The Righteous Brothers
[00:01.43]This is my island in the sun
[00:07.96]Where my people have toiled since time begun
[00:14.07]I may sail on many a sea
[00:19.66]Her shores will always be home to me
[00:27.36]Oh island in the sun
[00:31.51]Willed to me by my father's hand
[00:36.62]All my days I will sing in praise
[00:40.60]Of your forest waters your shining sand
[00:45.86]When morning breaks the heaven on high
[00:50.68]I lift my heavy load to the sky
[00:55.32]Sun comes down with a burning glow
[01:00.09]Mingles my sweat with the earth below
[01:05.20]Oh island in the sun
[01:09.24]Willed to me by my father's hand
[01:14.08]All my days I will sing in praise
[01:18.26]Of your forest waters your shining sand
[01:23.93]I see woman on bended knee
[01:29.10]Cutting cane for her family
[01:32.85]I see man at the water side
[01:37.96]Casting nets at the surging tide
[01:42.49]I hope the day will never come
[01:47.24]That I can't awake to the sound of drum
[01:52.04]Never let me miss carnival
[01:55.82]With calypso songs philosophical
[02:00.58]Oh island in the sun
[02:05.89]Willed to me by my father's hand
[02:10.25]
[02:11.08]All my days I will sing in praise
[02:14.82]Of your forest waters your shining sand
[02:20.20]Oh island in the sun
