Jamaican Getaway

Jamaican weekend, I just had to run
I needed time in sweet Jamaican sun
Just to walk soft golden sands
Take some time and rearrange my plans
I'll see a wizard, he can fix a spell
Just for two, he will never sell
'Cause I ain't taking no more jive
That was your last chance and to think I cried
Did you think you could get away with that
Did you think you could get away with that
Did you think you could get away, get away, get away with that
Well, you tried
I didn't mind the late nights, the one night stands
'Cause I'm a lady, I need a rock and roll man
So I make Jamaican getaway
Tell you, boy, I'm here to stay
