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 Cumana
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
[Oh, beat it man, beat it]
Since the Yankee come to Trinidad
They got all 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 Cumana
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
[Oh, you vex me, you vex me]
~~~~♫♫♫ ~~~~
From Chacachacare to Mono's Isle
Native girls all dance and smile
Help soldiers celebrate his leave
Make every day like New Year's Eve
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
Go down Point Cumana
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
~~~~♫♫♫ ~~~~
In old Trinidad, I also fear
The situation is mighty queer
Like the Yankee girl, the native swoon
When she hear « der Bingle » croon
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
Go down Point Cumana
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
~~~~♫♫♫ ~~~~
Out on Manzanilla 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 Cumana
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
Rum and Coca-Cola
Drinking rum and Coca-Cola
Rum and Coca-Cola
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
