Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
[Bridge]
Oh, beat it man, beat it
[Verse 2]
If a Yankee comes to Trinidad
They got the young girls all goin' mad
Young girls say they treat 'em nice
Make Trinidad like paradise
[Chorus]
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
[Bridge]
Oh, you vex me, you vex me
[Verse 3]
From Chicachicaree to Mona's Isle
Native girls all dance and smile
Help soldier celebrate his leave
Makes every day like New Year's Eve
[Chorus]
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
[Bridge]
It's a fact, man, it's a fact
[Verse 4]
In old Trinidad, I also fear
The situation is mighty queer
Like the Yankee girls, the native swoon
When she hear der Bingle croon
[Chorus]
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
[Verse 5]
Out on Manzanella Beach
G.I. romance with native peach
All night long, make tropic love
Next day, sit in hot sun and cool off
[Chorus]
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
[Bridge]
It's a fact, man, it's a fact
[Outro]
Rum and Coca-Cola
Rum and Coca-Cola
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
