Puerto Rico...
|
You lovely island...
|
Island of tropical breezes.

Always the pineapples growing,
|
Always the coffee blossoms blowing...
|
|
?ANITA (mockingly)
|
Puerto Rico...
|
You ugly island...
|
Island of tropic diseases.
|
Always the hurricande blowing,
|
Always the population growing...
|
And the money owing,
|
And the babies crying,
|
And the bullets flying.
|
I like the island Mangattan -
|
Smoke on your pipe and put that in!
