↓ 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

If you are from Trinidad and have never been to any of Queen Calypso Rose concerts or have never bought any of her cd's, put a $5 bill in her hand and say thank you for all the very precious music you have been giving us for years. When all of our golden voice giants should leave this earth or if they die poor it will break our hearts to see that we have never given them any support in any form. This is some thing that people in the world should do to their great artist. How much is 10,000 $5 bills ?
What an absolute banger, I am forever grateful that I came across this song and found out about this lady's music. Love the lyrics, so powerful. And the bass MOVES me. Fantastic.
she's the queen, saludos desde Colombia 🇨🇴🇨🇴, acá se escucha mucho Calypso en San Andrés y Cartagena.
Her sound is truly lively and vibrant!🎉 .. ❤ from South Korea🥰

Exceptionnelle qui dit mieux ? Et si on dansait ? Calypso Rose c'est aussi une véritable parade musicale caribéenne, avec de nombreux changements de rythmes. Calypso classique, ska, soca, ragga, chants de paix et toujours des paroles engagées pour défendre la condition de la femme et dénoncer les injustices sociales. Mille bravos, j'adore !!

Happy Memory.
Oui vraiment cette chanteuse qui a l'âge d'être la grand mère de beaucoup d'entre nous irradie une gaieté très communicative. C'est un vrai bonheur de l'entendre et elle vient de faire un tabac sur F2 à Taratata. Elle était vraiment la reine au milieu des musiciens sur ce plateau. Vous êtes le soleil au milieu de tout ce monde. Vive Calypso Rose
I'm really enjoying this music! Calypso Rose has some cool music!
You are the queen and the only queen of calapso and trust me no one can take your place
This is class. This is Kaiso. Long live the Queen. More life, more strength.
Beautiful!!!!
