Lyrics

I see your teeth flash, Jamaican honey so sweet
 Down where Lexington 'cross 47th Street
 Oh, she's a big girl, she's standin' six foot three
 Turning tricks for the dudes in the big city
 Island girl
 What you wanting with the white man's world?
 (Oh) Island girl
 Black boy wants you in his island world
 He wants to take you from your racket boss
 He wants to save you, but the cause is lost
 Island girl, island girl, island girl
 Tell me what you wanting with the white man's world
 ♪
 Well, she's black as coal but she burn like a fire
 And she wraps herself around you like a well-worn tire
 You feel her nail scratch your back just like a rake, oh-oh-oh
 He one more gone, he one more John who makes the mistake
 Island girl
 What you wanting with the white man's world?
 (Oh) Island girl
 Black boy wants you in his island world
 He wants to take you from your racket boss
 He wants to save you, but the cause is lost
 Island girl, island girl, island girl
 Tell me what you wanting with the white man's world
 ♪
 Island girl
 What you wanting with the white man's world?
 (Oh) Island girl
 Black boy wants you in his island world
 He wants to take you from your racket boss
 He wants to save you, but the cause is lost
 Island girl, island girl, island girl
 Tell me what you wanting with the white man's...
 Tell me what you wanting with the white man's...
 Tell me what you wanting with the white man's...
