Island woman , Island woman
Making me forget , who I am
Island woman , Island woman
Making me forget , who I am
Now the fishing was good on the island
That's why I come back for more
Then by my boat saw her swimming
I followed her in to the shore
Island woman , Island woman
Making me forget , who I am
Island woman , Island woman
Making me forget , who I am
Well she danced for me in the moonlight
Drank up all of my rum
But when I woke in the daylight
She taking my money and run
Now my pocket's are full of empty
Things are not as they were
All alone on the islandWith only the memory of her
My pretty Island woman , Island woman ,
Island woman
The lyrics ISLAND WOMAN of THE BROTHERS FOUR is also present in the album Rally round / roamin' with the brothers four (1960)
The Brothers Four sono un gruppo folk americano formatosi nel 1957 a Seattle, Washington. Bob Flick, John Paine, Mike Kirkland e Dick Foley si sono incontrati all'Università di Washington, dove erano membri della fraternità Phi Gamma Delta nel 1956 (da cui il soprannome "Brothers"). Le loro prime performance professionali furono il risultato di uno scherzo giocato loro nel 1958 da una fraternità rivale, che aveva organizzato qualcuno per telefonare a loro, fingendo di essere del Colony Club di Seattle, e invitarli ad andare al club per un'audizione. Anche se non erano previsti all'interno del club, furono comunque lasciati cantare alcune canzoni e in seguito assunti. Flick ricorda di essere stato pagato "per lo più con la birra". Il gruppo ha raggiunto il successo nazionale negli anni '60 con brani come "Greenfields", "The Sound of Silence" e "Try to Remember". Sono noti per le loro armonie vocali e per l'interpretazione di canzoni folk tradizionali e originali.
