Lyrics

And when the Yankees first went to Trinidad
Some of the young girls were more than glad
They said that the Yankees treat them nice
And they give them a better price
They buy:
Rum and Coca-Cola
Went down Point Cumana
Both mothers and daughters
Working for their Yankee dollars
Ah, look, I had a little chick the other day
But her mother came and took her away
Herself, her mother and her sisters
Went in a cab with some soldiers
They bought:
They have some aristos in Port of Spain
I know a lot, but I won't call name
And in the day they wouldn't give you a right
But you might see them with the foreigners late at night
Drinking:
I know a couple who got married one afternoon
And was to go Miami on their honeymoon
But the bride run away with a soldier lad
And the stupid husband went staring mad
They bought:
