Festival Time Lyrics - Maxi Priest

Things we used to do 

Things we used to say 

Things we used to do 

Things we used to say 

Sunday morning I rise bright and early 

Getting ready for a festival time 

Smiley Culture, Tippa Irie they are coming 

Philip Levi, phone and say him soon come 

We are gonna meet, meet the sound 

We hold the mike, crowd gather 'round 

Put on the show fi please the crowd 

Everybody them baul out loud 

Festival time is here 

Festival time is here 

Festival time is here 

Festival time is here, well sister 

Whoa, yeah, whoa, yeah 

Whoa, yeah, whoa, yeah 

Festival time is here 

Festival time is here 

Festival time is here 

Festival time is here, well sister 

Whoa, yeah, whoa, yeah 

Whoa, yeah, whoa, yeah 

Now the children they are laughing and playing 

While the elders they are talking about them 

Say miss Lou's working hard on the chicken 

While Max's dad has been doing enough drinking 

Me and me brethren just a stand up and watch 

A what a joy to see them 

Me and me brethren just a stand up and watch 

A what a joy to see them 

Festival time is here 

Festival time is here 

Festival time is here 

Festival time is here, well sister 

Whoa, yeah, whoa, yeah 

Whoa, yeah, whoa, yeah 

Come make, we carry go drink, come 

Food and stall, food and stall 

Goes oh, ah, ah, oh, ah 

Oh, ah, ah
