Lyrics

[00:12.23] If you ever go down Trinidad
[00:15.24] They make you feel so very glad
[00:18.25] Calypso sing and make up rhyme
[00:21.14] Guarantee you one real good fine time
[00:24.07] Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
[00:27.34] Go down Point Koomahnah
[00:30.36] Both mother and daughter
[00:33.18] Workin' for the Yankee dollar
[00:39.00] Oh, beat it man, beat it
[00:42.34] Since the Yankee come to Trinidad
[00:44.96] They got the young girls all goin' mad
[00:47.91] Young girls say they treat 'em nice
[00:50.92] Make Trinidad like paradise
[00:53.93] Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
[00:57.00] Go down Point Koomahnah
[01:00.01] Both mother and daughter
[01:03.09] Workin' for the Yankee dollar
[01:08.72] Oh, you vex me, vex me
[01:11.79] From Chicachicaree to Mona's Isle
[01:15.35] Native girls all dance and smile
[01:18.28] Help soldier celebrate his leave
[01:21.21] Make every day like New Year's Eve
[01:24.16] Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
[01:27.30] Go down Point Koomahnah
[01:30.23] Both mother and daughter
[01:33.16] Workin' for the Yankee dollar
[01:39.46] It's a fact, man, it's a fact
[01:43.29] In old Trinidad, I also fear
[01:46.61] The situation is mighty queer
[01:50.02] Like the Yankee girl, the native swoon
[01:52.59] When she hear Der Bingo croon
[01:55.54] Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
[01:58.55] Go down Point Koomahnah
[02:02.06] Both mother and daughter
[02:05.07] Workin' for the Yankee dollar
[02:14.04] Out on Manzanella Beach
[02:16.80] G.I. romance with native peach
[02:19.81] All night long, make tropic love
[02:22.58] Next day, sit in hot sun and cool off
[02:26.02] Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
[02:29.03] Go down Point Koomahnah
[02:31.79] Both mother and daughter
[02:34.93] Workin' for the Yankee dollar
[02:41.63] It's a fact, man, it's a fact
[02:44.12] Rum and Coca-Cola
[02:50.23] Rum and Coca-Cola
[02:56.25] Workin' for the Yankee dollar
