Eric Donaldson Land of My Birth song lyrics

This is the land of my birth

This Is The Land Of My Birth

I Say This Is The Land Of My Birth

I Say This Jamaica My Jamaica

The Land Of My Birth

I Will Never Leave Her Shores

I Will Never Run Away

I Will Always Believe In The Black, The Green, The Gold, I Say

Our Nation great though, A Lot Of Trails

We Must Face The Test Of Time

And Our People They Are Strong And We Are Going To Get Along

Though Some People Say We Are Poor

But The Progress you Make My Friend

Is Not Always how Rich You Are

Repeat Let Us Stop For A Minute

Count Our Blessings One By One

We should never be disloyal

But stand up and keep strong

My Jamaica is a beautiful island

She is the coral of the Caribbean seas

And our people their free

No oppression there to see

With the prettiest women there be

And the hills, and the plains and the rivers and the valleys always beckon to me

Repeat Miss Tourist, Mr. Tourist see the land and come

I will be here for a while and I will bathe in the warm, warm sun

We will share a lot with you

Our people they are true they will want to be with you

They will love, they will help, they will give

If you wish my friend you can live

You will be a happier one in the land of the rising sun

Repeat
