|
Fine calypso woman, she cook me shrimp and rice |
|
Dese yankee hot dogs |
|
Don't treat me stomach very nice |
|
In Trinidad, one dollar buy |
|
Papaya juice, banana pie |
|
Six coconut, one female goat |
|
An' plenty fish to fill de boat |
|
One bushel bread, one barrel wine |
|
An' all de town, she come to dine |
|
But here is bad, one dollar buy |
|
Cup of coffee, ham on rye |
|
Me throat she sick from necktie |
|
Me feet hurt from shoes |
|
Me pocket full of empty |
|
I got Calypso blues |
|
Dese yankee girl give me big scare |
|
Is black de root, is blonde de hair |
|
Her eyelash false, her face is paint |
|
And pads are where de girl she ain't |
|
She jitterbug when she should waltz |
|
I even think her name is false |
|
But calypso girl is good a lot |
|
Is what you see, is what she got |
|
Sittin' by de ocean, me heart, she feel so sad |
|
Sittin' by de ocean, me heart, she feel so sad |
|
Don't got de money |
|
To take me back to |
