A tourist dame, I met her the night she came
Well, she curiously asking about my country
She said, "I heard about bacchanal and the Trinidad Carnival
So I want to jump in the fun
Eddy Grant, show me how it is done"

I say, "Come in town J'ouvert morning
Find yourself in a band
Watch the way how the natives moving
Hug up tight with a man
Sing along with the tunes they playing
And now and again, keep shouting
Play mas bacchanal, Miss Tourist
This is carnival"

Well, the following day, we went to Maracas Bay
And every step we walk, she'd start with this J'ouvert talk
She said, "From what I've been told
Carnival is out of this world
Just the thought is worrying me brain
Well, let me hear that lesson again"
So I said

"Come in town J'ouvert morning
Find yourself in a band
Watch the way how the natives moving
Hug up tight with a man
Sing along with the tunes they playing
And now and again, keep shouting
Play mas bacchanal, Miss Tourist
This is carnival"
