Everybody dancing in Guyana
Oh, and they all say that's the way
Everybody dancing in Guyana
Oh, how I wish that you were here
Everybody dancing in Guyana
Oh, and they all say that's the way
Everybody dancing in the streets now
Oh, how I wish that you were here
I took a trip to Georgetown
Via Port of Spain
I went to see my old girl
Who made my life this way
You see, I was born in Plaisance
A little country place
And there I met a tourist
Who said she knew my face
Oh, everybody dancing in Guyana
Oh, and they all say that's the way
Everybody dancing in Guyana
Oh, how I wish that you were here, whoo!
Everybody dancing in Guyana
Oh, and they all say that's the way
Everybody dancing in the streets now
Oh, how I wish that you were here, whoo!
I took a trip to the jungle
To see a Ju-Ju man
He said he had his ways and means
To make a man a man
I took along my tourist friend
Who ever since that day
Said she'd rather die for Guyana
Rather than the USA, whoo!
Everybody dancing in Guyana
Oh, and they all say that's the way
Everybody dancing in streets now
Oh, girl, I wish that you were here
Everybody dancing in Guyana
Oh, and they all shout that's the way
Everybody dancing in the streets now
Oh, girl, I wish that you were here, whoo!
Everybody dancing in Guyana
Oh, and they all think that's the way
And everybody dancing in the streets now
Oh, girl, I wish that you were here...
