Maribaya

In the heat of the tropic sun,
I was searching for love and fun,
So I've been travelling around this land,
Of green valleys and golden sand.

On a freight-train I found my way,
To my true love, one lucky day,
Here on a beautiful site,
On a wonderful tropic night.

Maribaya, down by a blue bayou,
A wild rose in the sun,
That's where my love's begun,
Maribaya, here in the mountain-dew,
I found my true love,
here I found my baby blue.

A golden rainbow is always hangin' over you
This must be heaven, a paradise come true

Maribaya, down by a blue bayou,
I found my true love,
here I found my baby blue.

Swaying palm trees and waterfalls,
There we lie under parasols,
And while the paddy-birds sing their song,
We're making love in the blistering sun.

On a freight-train I found my way,
To my true love, one lucky day,
Here on a beautiful site,
On a wonderful tropic night.

Maribaya, down by a blue bayou,
A wild rose in the sun,
That's where my love's begun,
Maribaya, here in the mountain-dew,
I found my true love,
here I found my baby blue.

Maribaya, down by a blue bayou,
I found my true love,
here I found my baby blue.
