Girl from Claxton bay

I woke up this morning and brush my teeth
And sat in the gallery looking out for the doubles man to pass
And when he did, I stopped him and buy 5 doubles and a homemade orange juice

The doubles were hot and tasty
And nothing tastes better than a Trinidad homemade orange juice

I was on vacation from New York
And it has been a few years since I've been back home

When I saw her my heart just started to beat like a drum
She had just come out of Ishmael khan book store

As the taxi maneuvers through the traffic and drives away
And for the rest of the day, I couldn’t stop thinking of this girl
I wish to meet her but all I know is that she lives somewhere in Claxton bay

I went back home that evening
And I just couldn't get her beautiful face off my...
