I'm so proud to be from the VI
A place of history like the African soil
St Thomas and St. John and St. Croix
Nothing can come between us but the waters that divide
Even though we're just a few square
I travel round the world with Virgin Islands pride
A lot of people still going thru strife
But still we live a joyful life
That's why the place nice so nice so nice
St Thomas sweet and nice so nice so nice
St croix full of pure vibes so nice so nice
St. John ah real paradise so nice so nice
We got so much to prove yet so much to lose
Virgin Islands teachers
Never raise no fool mama send me school
When it's difficult we still ah push thru
No matter what the blessings have to continue
We are a people of great value
That's why we stick together like tamarind stew
Remember queen Mary wha Mek the fire burn
And Edward blyden with the Africa vision
Remember St. John with the slave rebellion
General buddhoe say emancipation
That's why the place nice so nice so nice
St Thomas sweet and nice so nice so nice
St croix full of pure vibes so nice so nice
St. John ah real paradise so nice so nice
We got so much to prove yet so much to lose
Virgin Islands teachers
Never raise no fool mama send me school
St croix produce the band midnite
Ah dem deh kind of roots Mek the fire ignite
Julian Jackson was a champion in the ring
And now him three son dem ah do the same thing
Tim Duncan come from the vi
One of the greatest and the world can see why
If you ever ask me where I'm from
Born in a Virgin Islands and the whole place nice
That's why the place nice so nice so nice
St Thomas sweet and nice so nice so nice
St croix full of pure vibes so nice so nice
St. John ah real paradise so nice so nice
