SUNSHINE SANTA
By Bindley B

I'm Sunshine Santa bringing you greetings Caribbean style
If you can't be down here with me, let me put some sunshine in your smile
You might be cold and lonely but things are not bad as they really seem
Well here's a present to make you glad - sweet soca sounds from the Caribbean.

Well let me see those bright smiles [Bright smiles]
Let me hear those sweet hellos [Hello, hello]
Let me see that twinkle in your eyes [In your eyes]
Let me see the happiness show
Sunshine Santa, Sunshine Santa, yes, I am
Sunshine Santa, Sunshine Santa from the Caribbean.

You have an open invitation to join me here for a fun filled time
I'll be here under clear blue skies on a sandy beach in brilliant sunshine
So don't think about reservation, leave the Winter cold that's making you blue
Friendly people, that's what you'll find waiting here just to welcome you.

A glass of punch-a-crema [Punch-a-crema]
Or a big, sweet ginger beer [Oh yeah]
A swim in crystal clear waters with calypso music filling the air
Sunshine Santa, Sunshine Santa, yes, I am
Sunshine Santa Sunshine Santa from the Caribbean.

I'm having the biggest party, so much eats and drinks you would be amazed
Everyone will be so happy, this party goes on for three whole days
With parang music and soca, sunshine celebrations especially for you
------ all the Christmas will be sweeter, I'll make your every wish come true.

So, let me see those bright smiles [Bright smiles]
Let me hear those sweet hellos [Hello, Hello]
Let me see that twinkle in your eyes [In your eyes]
Let me see the happiness show
Sunshine Santa, Sunshine Santa, yes, I am
Sunshine Santa, Sunshine Santa from the Caribbean.

 A Note From The Gull


Thank you, Bindley B. I want to dedicate this song to Santas everywhere and I am referring to those people among our family members and friends who just know how to make Christmas special for those around them, I also want to share this with those of us away from our homeland who are already buried under snow. Sunshine and warmth would be a welcome change but this song goes a long way toward brightening up the season. 

"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!
Guanaguanare
