Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Bare feet on the red dirt road
Grandma hangin' clothes in the wind
Salt air on my bicycle spokes
Dreams louder than the waves comin' in
Little radio on the window sill
Static fightin' with the Sunday choir
Mama hummin' while she cooks for five
Sayin'
“Baby
Let that heart stay on fire”
[Chorus]
I’m an island boy grown
Still dancin' in the sand (oh yeah)
From the one-room house to the big sound system
I stand
Got the sun in my skin
Got the sea in my song
Every step that I take say I’m right where I belong
I’m an island boy grown
But I still move like a child
Every beat bring me back to that shoreline smile
From the hills to the bay
I can feel it in my bones
Wherever I go
I’m an island boy grown
[Verse 2]
First kiss by the mango tree
Laughin' when the rain came fast
We were talkin' 'bout leavin' someday
But prayin' that the moment would last
Now I’m flyin' out
Lookin' down on blue
Big world but it feels so small
'Cause I carry every nickname
Every backyard game
Every face that ever taught me not to fall
[Chorus]
I’m an island boy grown
Still dancin' in the sand (hey!)
From the one-room house to the big sound system
I stand
Got the sun in my skin
Got the sea in my song
Every step that I take say I’m right where I belong
I’m an island boy grown
And my heart beat stay the same
Every move
Every groove call my island name
From the hills to the bay
I can feel it in my bones
Wherever I go
I’m an island boy grown
[Bridge]
Hands up high for the ones who raised us
For the old school love that saved us
If you came from a place so small
But your dream so wide it could cover it all
[Chorus]
I’m an island boy grown
Still dancin' in the sand
From the one-room house to the big sound system
I stand
Got the sun in my skin
Got the sea in my song
Every step that I take say I’m right where I belong
I’m an island boy grown
And I’ll sing it loud
Sing it proud (oh yeah)
Every dance
Every chance
Hear my hometown loud
From the hills to the bay
I can feel it in my bones
Wherever I go
I’m an island boy grown
