Iz A Trini Lyrics

[Chorus - Jimmy October]
I do it for the red
I do it for the white
I do it for the black

Eat a doubles with a slight
I'z a Trini
God damn it, I'z a Trini

In the Carnival fete sipping puncheon or a stag
Or on Store Bay eating dumplings with the crab
I'z a Trini
God damn it, I'z a Trini

So wave your rag, nah
Wave your flag, nah

If you're from Trinidad, put your hands up

Wave your rag, nah
Wave your flag, nah
If you're from Bago, put your hands up

RAH! RAH! Put your flags up
RAH! RAH! Put your rags up
RAH! RAH! Put your hands up
If you're from Trinidad, put your hands up

[Verse 1 - Mark Hardy]
We're from Trinidad, and that's real talk
You could check the stamp on my passport
We like sweet gyal who like sweet talk
And we're getting money like Lifesport
We does duck work on a Friday
Link a brethren, ask, "Where de lime dey?"
By the rum shop, cause it's right there
We does real build it, like highway
Carnival, we there on the road
All the gyal them body exposed
I say they wining up, and the jamming up
And they tipping all on they toes

I say I'm swagging all in my clothes
Gold chains on like Sugar Aloes
Down here KFC never close
And Murray Street has the hoes
BIG MAN THING!
I come to do my thing, shell down crowds when we sing
BIG MAN THING!
We come to do we thing with this trapso vibes that we bring
BIG MAN THING!
It's me the gyal Whatsapping, saying she wah roll with the king
BIG MAN THING!
We come to do we thing, T&T let me hear you sing
I said I...


[Chorus - Jimmy October]


[Outro - Jimmy October]
