Rick Ramdehal - Colors lyrics

(R. Ramdehal)

Carnival people

Put you rags in de air, put you flags in de air, put you hands in de air, get ready to go

Eh, You rags, you flags, you rags, you flags, oh oh oh oh oh

People its carnival again; Whether its in sunshine or in rain

Representin' colors from all nations; Ah want to ask you a carnival question

What's de color of you flag? When carnival start, you jumpin' up high, and reachin' de sky

Color of you rag? When you jump and wave, like you jus get saved, and you misbehave

Color of you skin? When you play j'ouvert and a stranger come and mud up you face

Color of you heart? When de music hit you brain and you start to jump up

1, Jump up, 2, Jump up, Jump up and show me now

Show me you colors, Jump up it's carnival time

Just show me you colors, Wave you rags and flags up high

Show me you colors, Start to make a wine

Just show me you colors, De music is yours and mine

The savior made a rainbow for we; It's in the sky for us to see

Go see when colors unite; Them does even shine more bright

Side by side we must learn to be; Live in peace and harmony

It's de spirit of carnival; One love, one heart, one union

What's de color of you blood? When you takin' a drink with a pardner on de side a de road

Color of you sweat? When you takin a juk, and winin' up hard, and you soakin' wet

Color of you mind? When you makin' love, and the skies above, everything's fine

Color of you soul? When you live with love and unity, with everybody, everybody

Jump up and show me now

Show me you colors….

What's de color of you skin? When you play mud mass, you play j'ouvert, and don't care ‘bout nothin'

Color of you soul? When you jump and dance, with a million people, in carnival

What's de color of you flag? When you wave it high, it reach de sky, it's carnival time

Color of you rag? On Labor Day, Miami, Caribana, Guyana, Trinidad

Show me you colors….
