The Mighty Gabby

Perhaps the best Calypsonian on the island is the former Ambassador of Culture, the Mighty Gabby. Of course we know he has a real name but few people call him or any of the local calypsonians by their real names.

Gabby was on Fireworks today. I tried to write in to catch him while he was there but I didn’t make it.

 

The Mighty Gabby

The King will sing and as he says

He missed the good old Kaiso days

Elated to work with some of the best

Mighty Gabby says the band is the first they request

I heard the names he called and the celebrities

Gabby called almost 50 years of monarchies

Half ways through the show people would leave

They were already satisfied, nothing else I believe

You had people turned back from getting in

Gabby suggested some back in time would be good to sing

All agree with the new song Love Boat

Bajans ready to savor his every note

But to get to hear it you got to attend the Big Show

You got to get early tickets if ever you deciding to go
