 Long before a boat anchored the harbor 
Long before steel drums filled the breeze 
God lifted these islands from the ocean 
And they stood strong for centuries. 
So it's fitting they were named after men with golden halos 
'cause angels don't give in just 'cause a little wind blows. 
We say we can when they say we can't 
See what it is when they see what it ain't 
With blood sweat and tears and a new coat of paint 
We're just a sinner's choir singing a song for the saints. 
Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oh-oh... 
Whoa-oa-oa-oh... 
Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oh-oh... 
Whoa-oa-oa-oh... 
For the farmer in the field of sugar cane 
For the drunkard in his hammock drying out after the rain 
For the teacher in the classroom, kid kicking cans in the street 
For the captain and his barmaid praying down on bended knee. 
We say we can when they say we can't 
See what it is when they see what it ain't 
With blood sweat and tears and a new coat of paint 
We're just a sinner's choir singing a song for the saints. 
Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oh-oh... 
Whoa-oa-oa-oh... 
Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oh-oh... 
Whoa-oa-oa-oh... 
This brokeness will heal 
This weakness will be strong 
Let's lift our voice together 
As the saints go marching on. 
We say we can when they say we can't 
See what it is when they see what it ain't 
With blood sweat and tears and a new coat of paint 
We're just a sinner's choir singing a song for the... 
We say we can when they say we can't 
See what it is when they see what it ain't 
With blood sweat and tears and a new coat of paint 
We're just a sinner's choir singing a song for the saints. 
Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oh-oh... 
Whoa-oa-oa-oh... 
Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oh-oh... 
Whoa-oa-oa-oh... 
Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oh-oh... 
Whoa-oa-oa-oh...
