Steel band man, yes you beatin' pan | |
But my friend you won't understand | |
Has it ever dawned on you | |
Who invented pan | |
I ask you to join me | |
In offerin' tribute to this man | |
(oh no) Everybody wonderin' | |
How the steelband start | |
(Oh no) When you get to know | |
Well, it's gonna break your heart | |
I tell you now | |
It's founded by one Winston Spree | |
And this is how | |
He started his first melody | |
Bless the day in 1939 | |
The genius say he recall to mind | |
Saw an ol' empty oil drum | |
Beatin' in the storm | |
Just before the sky darkened | |
You know it was the steel band was born | |
(oh no) Everybody wonderin' | |
How the steelband start | |
(Oh no) When you get to know | |
Well, it's gonna break your heart | |
I tell you now | |
It's founded by one Winston Spree | |
And this is how | |
He started his first melody | |
He went along beatin'blow by blow | |
He thought it sound like a piano | |
This really inspired him to a great extent | |
So he continued poundin' | |
Until he found this new instrument | |
(oh no) Everybody wonderin' | |
How the steelband start | |
(Oh no) When you get to know | |
Well, it's gonna break your heart | |
I tell you now | |
It's founded by one Winston Spree | |
And this is how | |
He started his first melody | |
Now the world waiting anxiously | |
We strike gold all because of Spree | |
But what are we doin' now to conserve his name | |
We should reimburse him | |
And have it placed in the hall of fame | |
(oh no) Everybody wonderin' | |
How the steelband start | |
(Oh no) When you get to know | |
Well, it's gonna break your heart |
