[Intro: Lol Creme]
On the other side of the island (Of the island)
There's a sky so clear and blue (And so blue)
Can see (Can see) cross water (Cross water) to the mainland
New life (New life) for me (For me) and you
[Verse: Kevin Godley]
Let's buy a hotel
Let's get a yacht
We'll get a golden island in the sun made of coconut
Let's buy an old car
We'll crash in a hut
We'll feed the food to the Ford and we'll live off the coconut
Well, there's a big black mama in a tree
She gonna cook us
She gonna call up the rest of the tribe
And it looks like the ghost of Tarzan lied
He went over to the other side
And he rang like a bell from tree to tree
[Chorus: Graham Gouldman]
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
[Bridge: Kevin Godley & Lol Creme]
We get American menus
With all American men
We're gettin' sick of things American
We ate our way through half the Pentagon
We had our share of big palookas
Yankee go home
Yankee go home
[Chorus: Graham Gouldman]
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge: Lol Creme]
Yankee go home
Yankee go ho-ho-home
[Verse: Kevin Godley]
Let's buy a hotel
Let's get a yacht
We'll get a golden island in the sun made of coconut
Let's buy an old car
We'll crash in a hut
We'll feed the food to the Ford and we'll live off the coconut
Well, there's a big black mama in a tree
She gonna cook us
She gonna call up the rest of the tribe
And it looks like the ghost of Tarzan lied
He went over to the other side
And he rang like a bell from tree to tree
Tree to tree, tree to tree
[Chorus: Graham Gouldman]
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
They never, ever let you go
