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.
Drink in’ Rum and Coca Cola,
Go down Point Koomahnah,
Both mother and daughter work in for the Yankee Dollar.
Since the Yankee come to Trinidad,
They got the young girls all going mad,
Young girls say they theat’em nice,
Make Trinidad lide paradise.
Drink in’ Rum and Coca Cola,
Go down Point Koomahnah,
Both mother and daughter work in for the Yankee Dollar.
From Chicachicaree to Mona’s Isle,
Native girls all dance and smile,
Help soldier celebrates his leave,
Make evry day like New Year’s Eve.
Drink in’ Rum and Coca Cola,
Go down Point Koomahnah,
Both mother and daughter work in for the Yankee Dollar.
In old Trinidad I also fear,
The situation is mighty queer,
Like the Yankee girls,
The native swoon,
When she hears the Bingo croon.
Drink in’ Rum and Coca Cola,
Go down Point Koomahnah,
Both mother and daughter work in for the Yankee Dollar.
You are out on Manzanella Beach.
Gee, I romance with native peach,
Whole night long make tropic love,
Next day sit in hot sun and cool off.
Drink in’ Rum and Coca Cola,
Go down Point Koomahnah,
Both mother and daughter work in for the Yankee Dollar.
