From the recording Pacific Roots
Lyrics
Tell me why, you wanna go, to the place where love is real
Where everyone knows your name
And all you got is day
Tell me why, you got that frown,
and your world is spinning round
Well everyone knows your name
So grab a drink and enjoy this day
So tell me why, you wanna fly
To that world that’s way up high
Nobody’s knows where you are
Mijita you’ve gone too far
Oh Santa Cruz, and the beauty of your sea
Let that Cali sun rain on me
Irie town is where we’re from
Tell me why we got to stay
We’re under the sun and we’re by the beach
All we got yeah
Irie town is where we’re from
Tell me why we got to stay
We’re under the sun and we’re by the beach
All we got yeah
When I wake up in the morning and I’m rubbing my eyes
Look out the window as the moon says goodbye
Jump into the ocean feel the sand between my toes
Blowing out this smoke as the Cush says hello
Hello, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hello
