Country music entertainer Kenny Chesney has poured his heart and soul into every song on his latest album, Songs For The Saints. The album is dedicated to the islands he loves and the track “Love For Love City” shows this deep admiration. Originally sung with Jamaican musician, Ziggy Marley, Chesney’s raw, acoustic version of this tune is worth a listen!
The renowned singer explains in the following video that this was the second song written after Hurricane Irma (the first being the album’s title track) and this was his way of writing a “love letter” to all the people that make up the islands that have played such a large part of his life.

“Love For Love City” Lyrics
All I’ve got’s love for love city
All of her people are my people too
Every color, every creed
Together in good times, together in need
All I’ve got’s love for love city
No I wasn’t there on the island
The night that the drums went silent
But as much as I’ve lived my life on her shoulder
I’ll be apart of the encore yeah
‘Cause all I’ve got’s love for love city
All of her people are my people too
Every color, every creed
Together in good times, together in need
All I’ve got’s love for love city
My healin’ my heaven my home
The day that I found you
My burdens were gone
The same as you give
Your gift of freedom
This gift gives back
Now now that you need ’em, yeah
‘Cause all we feel’s love for the city, yeah
All of her people are my people too
Every color, every creed
Together in good time, together in need
All I’ve got’s love for love city, yeah
Come share the love come feel the love
All I’ve got’s love love for city
Come share the love come feel the love
All I’ve got’s love love for city
For love city, yeah
All of her people are my people too
True that
For love city
