WE COME OUT TO DANCE
By Susan Macio

[Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance]
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
[Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance]
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
[Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance]
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
[Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance]
It's Christmas, we come out to dance!

It's the Christmas season in Tobago and Trinidad
There is not a reason why everybody shouldn't be glad
Now ease the tension, not to mention
The air of sorrow and sweat
The adoration, no frustration, we going to fete

We go dance, we go dance, we go dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
We go dance, we go dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
We go dance, we go dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
We go dance, we go dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance!

We should all be happy on this blessed morn
Rejoice and be merry, Jesus Christ is born
Let your love light shine with goodwill and peace for all
Keep this message in mind and we go have a ball

We go dance, we go dance, we go dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
We go dance, we go dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
We go shake marac in parang
[It's Christmas, we come out to dance]
Eating fruit cake and boiled ham
[It's Christmas, we come out to dance]
When you hear the boom-boom of the box bass
[It's Christmas, we come out to dance]
Grab your partner, swing all over the place!

We go dance, we go dance, we go dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
We go dance, we go dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance

[Dance, dance, dance] we come out to dance
[Dance, dance, dance] we come out to dance
[Dance, dance, dance] we come out to dance
[Dance, dance] dance!

And now at this juncture, we solemnly declare
To keep this Christmas feeling now and throughout the year
It's not only at Christmas time these loving things to do
We'll keep on doing these Christmas things now and the whole year through

We go dance, we go dance, we go dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
We go dance, we go dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
We go shake marac in parang
[It's Christmas, we come out to dance]
Eating fruit cake and boiled ham
[It's Christmas, we come out to dance]
When you hear the boom-boom of the box bass
[It's Christmas, we come out to dance]
Grab your partner, swing all over the place!

We go dance, we go dance, we go dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
We go dance, we go dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance!

Time to heat up the tempo, everybody jump up and dance
Hold your partner, don't let go, we come out to prance
Christmas is a happy time, forget your worry and care
This would be a fun time to wave your hand in the air

So leh we dance, leh we dance, leh we dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
Leh we dance, leh we dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
We go shake marac in parang
[It's Christmas, we come out to dance]
Eating fruit cake and boiled ham
[It's Christmas, we come out to dance]
When you hear the boom-boom of the box bass
[It's Christmas, we come out to dance]
Grab your partner, swing all over the place

So leh we dance, leh we dance, leh we dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
Leh we dance, leh we dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance
Leh we dance, leh we dance
Its Christmas, we come out to dance,
Leh we dance, leh we dance
It's Christmas, we come out to dance!

[Dance, dance, dance] It's Christmas, we come out to dance
[Dance, dance, dance] It's Christmas, we come out to dance
[Dance, dance, dance] It's Christmas, we come out to dance
[Dance, dance, dance] It's Christmas, we come out to dance

We go shake marac in parang, we come out to dance
Bring yuh partner, come leh we jam, we come to dance
With the boom-boom on the box bass, we come out to dance
We go swing all over de place!

A Note From The Gull

Thank you, Susan.

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.

Mweh ka allay!
