my home

Every dream I dream takes me again

To the island down in the Carribean
F C F C
Back to happiness and my Spanish Town home

If she takes me back I will never more roam

in my heart

Let the tide and trade winds carry me

To the girl I want to marry me

I can't live alone just on mem'ries I've

I'm just like a bird that dosen't sing

Like a seagull with a broken wing
F C F
Take me off of this ship let me go home
[Chorus]
