Oh yeah!
Come on!
[Verse 1]
I'm always meeting people
Who want me to recommend
A lovely island for them
When they have vacation to spend
I always tell them plainly
If they want to have fun and joy
Come to the Virgin Islands
The queen of them all, St. Croix
[Chorus]
St. Croix, what a lovely island
St. Croix, ideal for vacation
Just to relax on the beach in the sun shine
You'll find you'll have a wonderful time
Oh boy, come to St. Croix
Come to St. Croix
[Verse 2]
For snorkeling and sailing
This is my belief
You will be enchanted
With the lovely Buck Island Reef
Then of course the hotels
So comfortable and clean
You won't want to go back home
You'll want to stay in the Caribbean
[Chorus]
St. Croix, and if you love sea-bathing
St. Croix, for spear-fishing and surf-riding
If you want to have fun, the weather is always fine
It's time to leave your worries behind
Oh boy, come to St. Croix
Come to St. Croix
[Verse 3]
Calypsoes and steel band
Will tell you it's Carnival
Beauty queens parading
Man, you can't miss this festival
It starts before Christmas
Until January the eighth
Make hotel reservations now
Before it's too late
[Chorus]
Come on, you're all invited
Come on, you will be delighted
Just walk around and see why the pirates found
The time to build such a hunting-ground
Oh boy, come to St. Croix
Come to St. Croix
[Verse 4]
Even if you live to see
163
Lovely St. Croix will always be
In your memory
No matter where you wander
And no matter where you roam
You must always remember
St. Croix is your second home
[Chorus]
St. Croix, for duty-free liquor
St. Croix, jewellery is cheaper
How can you miss an opportunity like this
Mr. Tourist, I'm going to insist
Oh boy, come to St. Croix
Come to St. Croix
