Calypso Vacation
Today I leave to get away from it all
I'll board a liner and
Head for the Caribbean
Beautiful isles of the West Indies
Swayin' palms back into me
Down where the people are so carefree
I'll take a calypso vacation
Rum and fun, sea and sun
Wish I were there this minute
Don't blame me if I'm impatient
To take a calypso vacation
Maybe I'll go by way of old Nassau
I'll leave my cares behind in the Caribbean
Port-au-Prince in Old Haiti
Visit them all, may even stay
Island music is calling me
To take a calypso vacation
Rum and fun, sea and sun
Wish I were there this minute
Don't blame me if I'm impatient
To take a calypso vacation
I'm so anxious to be on the way
To take a cruise in the beautiful Caribbean
Maybe I can learn to do the limbo
Girls can show me what I should know
Time to catch a boat, got to go
On my calypso vacation
Rum and fun, sea and sun
Wish I were there this minute
Don't blame me if I'm impatient
To take a calypso vacation
To take a calypso vacation
