↓ LYRICS ↓

They say that I reign too long
Forgetting that the constitution is strong
Instead of respecting the long long reign
They make a plot to take down me name

I've been breaking down walls, ever since I was small
They could stand up tall and strong
Like a wrecking ball I would knock them down
They say that I reign too long

Forgetting that me constitution is strong
Instead of respecting me long long reign
They making plot to take down me name
Everywhere I reign supreme

They want to own the Calypso Queen
No man alive or dead
Could not come and take the crown off me head
Them foolish and petty men

I don't worry about them
They been trying to take me down
But to the end I retain the crown
They say that I reign too long

Forgetting that me constitution is strong
Instead of respecting me long long reign
They making plot to take down me name
They used to call me small island girl

Now, I travel the world
Anywhere they go
They know I am Calypso Rose, Queen of Calypso
I am the daughter of warrior

No time to rest or retire
Other have come and fought
But Calypso Rose is still singing on
They say that I reign too long

Forgetting that me constitution is strong
Instead of respecting me long long reign
They making plot to take down me name
