LYRICS
Kes Verse 1

Just like when carnival come and we jammin' in the rain,
You do not have to be a friend,
But you still hugging up all through Port of Spain,
Why only that time of year everybody come as one,
Taking their bun up in the sun,
Winnin' all behind the truck and having fun,
But you need to keep in mind,
When carnival done,
And there's no more bump and grind,
No costume in town,
So please , keep the unity yeah,
Everyone is family
Indian , Black , White or Chinee, Baldhead or Ras,

Chorus

Live your life like yuh playing mas

Chippin together , winnin' together,
Drinks in we hand and we tipsy together
This man wine on she and she wine on another
We sweaty in the band

Live your life like yuh playing mas

We loving together , jamming together
Raising we hand and we feteing together,
This man wine on she and she wine another
Together in the band

Hand in the air and wave for me ( Repeat )
And leweh have some unity
Hand in the air and wave for me ( Repeat )
Hand in the air and wave , time to misbehave on stage

David Rudder Verse 2

In the rhythm of life , people shine a good light
For all that we've been through together,
I know , I know, we feteing through all kinda weather
You got to know your role in this living masquerade
Cause the young and the bold come to shake it up
They go wake it up wo yeah
So when the iron klang and the oil drum boom
Soul fire start to blaze, we found a love we could never lose,
So please bring the unity
Peace, love , true harmony
Dont stand up and just wait for this band to pass

Chorus

Live your life like yuh playing mas

Working together , whatever the weather
Sister and brother, brother and sister,
Vibe on she and she vibe on another
Together in this land

Live your life like yuh playing mas

Working together , whatever the weather
Sister and brother, brother and sister,
Vibe on she and she vibe on another
Together in this land

Hand in the air and wave for me ( Repeat )
And leweh have some unity
Hand in the air and wave for me ( Repeat )
