Em
They say that I reign too long 
                                   B7
Forgetting that my constitution is strong 

Instead of respecting my long long reign 
                                Em
They making plot to take down my name 


I’ve been breaking down walls 
                B7
Ever since I was small 

They could stand up tall and strong 
                                 Em
Like a wrecking ball I go knock them down 


Em
They say that I reign too long 
                                   B7
Forgetting that my constitution is strong 

Instead of respecting my long long reign 
                                 Em
They making plot to take down my name 

Everywhere I reign supreme 
                          B7
The one and only calypso queen 

No man alive or dead 
                                     Em
Could come and take the crown of my head 


Them foolish and petty men 

I don’t worry ‘bout them 

They’ve been trying to take me down 

But to the end I retain my crown 


They say that I reign too long 

Forgetting that my constitution is strong 

Instead of respecting my long long reign 

They making plot to take down my name 


They used to call me small island girl 

Now I travel the world 

Everywhere they go they know 

I am Calypso Rose queen of calypso 


I am the daughter of the warrior 

No time to rest or retire 

Others have come and gone 

But calypso rose is still singing on 


They say that I reign too long 

Forgetting that my constitution is strong 

Instead of respecting my long long reign 

They making plot to take down my name
