Trinidad Carnival Time

Ralph MacDonald, William Salter

By this time back in Trinidad
They're making arrangements for the fact to start
And what's the big occasion
That's causing such a jubilation

Well it's Carnival, what else could it be
People line the roads up and down to see
Waiting for all the bands to pass
To jump in and play their mass

It's Carnival come join with me
Grab your partner and you'll feel free
Be merry and gay relax enjoy your stay
Have fun this Carnival day

Jump up to the rhythm and the rhyme
Shake your body in the line
It's Trinidad Carnival time

Oh I never seen so much a rum yet
And those bakes and biscuits I can't forget
Steel band boys bing bang their tune
People romancing undеr the moon

Well it's masqueradе all over the place
Like a convention of the human race
Day and night it's still going on
Well it's there my friends Calypso was born
