Lyrics
Saint Thomas Holiday
Forecast said there's another month
that old man winter's gonna hang around
But I can't take even one more day
o' this snowbound northern town
So before I go insane I board a Southbound Island plane
Wave the cold goodbye & I'm St. Thomas bound
CHORUS
St. Thomas holiday on a fun (sun rum) filled getaway
I'm frozen here in time on the warm Bolongo Bay
Soakin' up the rum (fun) with the Carribean Sun
I'm here to stay on St. Thomas Holiday
Tune my ear to steel drum beats sayin'
"welcome to de island mon"
Comb my toes in sun bleach sand that I spread my towel on
A tiki party on the shore, no I couldn't ask for more
I ain't goin' home til all my money's gone
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Splashin' in the water & I can't hide a grin
Washin' off the winter while the hot rays paint my skin
CHORUS
Yea dis mon gonna stay on St. Thomas holiday
