Nevis Nice by King Meeko (Calypso, 1997)
Verse 1
Everybody talking about their country, and how their native land is de best
But never ever let no foreigner fool thee; some a dem island is in a mess
And when I talk about democracy, peace and tranquility,
Not one a dem islands could compete with we
For I proud of me native land; A proud to be Nevisian
And I cannot boast of no confusion
And every time I walk of the streets of queen city, I see more Trini and Guyanese
I never thought I would live to see, live to see
Foreigners migrate to my country
Chorus
God bless our country, bless our native land
Grant us that courage to change the things we can; For de progress in our land
Because in the land of our birth (Paradise here on earth)
It’s the opinion of the experts (Paradise here on earth)
Nevis nice (Nevis Nice) [4x]
Natural beauty the air so clean (Queen of the Caribees)
I feel so proud man I want to scream (Queen of the Caribees)
Verse 2
Where ever you go throughout the whole caribees, my little island name is mentioned
As a land of peace and stability, and a good tourist destination
So when dem other islands, revel in confusion
We don’t bear no grudge, we don’t bear envy
Even when we have election, we abstain from confusion
Peace does prevail in Queen City
And when them tourist come for vacation, man they always compliment we
As a people so free and so friendly, so friendly
In a land of natural beauty
Chorus
Verse 3
In a complex world of constant changes, we take the good things we always had
Like loving the people that represent us, here in our home and even abroad
Many nations sit idly by, watch their heroes suffer and die
But we give our heroes respect and recognition
A small ______ at the top and we proudly carry the torch
After guiding lives that were sponsored by Nevisians
I say to my sister island St. Kitts, now that you have accomplished a change
Take example and follow me, be like me
And we can share the same destiny
Chorus
