Carnival song

Lyrics

Chorus

Down the road we go, Batabano calling

Costumes blazing, spirits never falling

Whining to the music, tracks on fire

Carnival forever, Cayman lift me higher

Post-Chorus

Wave it up, hands up

Jump up, never stop

Wave it up, hands up

Batabano on the block

Verse 2

From George Town to Seven Mile sand

Colors splash across the land

Masqueraders twist and turn

Every legend, every hand

Respect to the icons paving the way

Left their spirit for us every Carnival day

From Miss Lassie paint to the drummers’ beat

Cayman pride, feel the heat

Pre-Chorus

Voices rise for the ones who came before

Road full of laughter, rhythm in the core

Hear the crowd, feel that soca run

Batabano, we shine like the sun

Chorus

Down the road we go, Batabano calling

Costumes blazing, spirits never falling

Whining to the music, tracks on fire

Carnival forever, Cayman lift me higher

Post-Chorus

Wave it up, hands up

Jump up, never stop

Wave it up, hands up

Batabano on the block

Bridge

All ah we together, flags in hand

Echoes of the heroes lifting up the bands

Every costume shining, proud we stand

Batabano spirit, it’s our land

Call and Response

(Call:) Whine and go down!

(Response:) Go down down!

(Call:) Jump around!

(Response:) Jump around now!

Chorus

Down the road we go, Batabano calling

Costumes blazing, spirits never falling

Whining to the music, tracks on fire

Carnival forever, Cayman lift me higher

Post-Chorus

Wave it up, hands up

Jump up, never stop

Wave it up, hands up

Batabano on the block

Outro

Down the road, Batabano ride

Bless up the Cayman pride

Costumes, music, history

We jump for all who made it be
