If you ever go down Trinidad
|
They make you feel so very glad
|
Calypso sing and make up rhyme
|
Guarantee you one real good fine time
|
|
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
|
Go down Point Koomahnah
|
Both mother and daughter
|
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
|
|
Oh, beat it man, beat it
|
|
Since the Yankee come to Trinidad
|
They got the young girls all goin' mad
|
Young girls say they treat 'em nice
|
Make Trinidad like paradise
|
|
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
|
Go down Point Koomahnah
|
Both mother and daughter
|
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
|
|
Oh, you vex me, you vex me
|
|
From Chicachicaree to Mona's Isle
|
Native girls all dance and smile
|
Help soldier celebrate his leave
|
Make every day like New Year's Eve
|
|
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
|
Go down Point Koomahnah
|
Both mother and daughter
|
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
|
|
It's a fact, man, it's a fact
|
|
In old Trinidad, I also fear
|
The situation is mighty queer
|
Like the Yankee girl, the native swoon
|
When she hear der Bingo croon
|
|
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
|
Go down Point Koomahnah
|
Both mother and daughter
|
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
|
|
Out on Manzanella Beach
|
G.I. romance with native peach
|
All night long, make tropic love
|
Next day, sit in hot sun and cool off
|
|
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
|
Go down Point Koomahnah
|
Both mother and daughter
|
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
|
|
It's a fact, man, it's a fact
|
|
Rum and Coca-Cola
|
Rum and Coca-Cola
|
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
|
