COMING HOME
By Terra B

Chorus
Oh lord, how ah miss mih country
Ten years now ah living in DC
As soon as ah get some money
Ah coming home, ah coming home!

Cyah wait to walk by the Savannah
Stop and drink some coconut water
With mih wife, mih son and mih daughters
[Ah coming home, ah coming home!]
Pass by Hott Shoppe, pick up ah roti
Go down Charford and check out mih Mammy
Down St James by Smokey and Bunty
[Ah coming home, ah coming home!)

Chorus
Oh lord, how ah miss meh country
Ten years now ah living in DC
As soon as ah get some money
Ah coming home, ah coming home!

Talk 'bout Sunday crab and callaloo
Macaroni pie and cascadou
Chicken in the oven, barbeque
[Ah coming home, ah coming home!]
Go down Maracas and take ah swim
Eating bake and shark in ah timing
Bounce up mih old partner, start liming
[Ah coming home, ah coming home!]

Oh lord, how ah miss meh country
