Lyrics
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
Drinking rhum and Coca-Cola
Go down "Point Koo mah nah"
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
Since the Yankee come to Trinidad
They got the young girls all goin' mad
Young girls say they treat 'em nice
Make Trinidad like paradise
Drinking rhum and Coca-Cola
Go down "Point Koo mah nah"
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
From Chicachicaree to Mona's Isle
Native girls all dance and smile
Help soldier celebrate his leave
Make every day like New Year's Eve
Drinking rhum and Coca-Cola
Go down "Point Koo mah nah"
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
(Oh, beat it man, beat it)
In old Trinidad, I also fear
The situation is mighty queer
Like the Yankee girl, the native swoon
When she hear der Bingo croon
Drinking rhum and Coca-Cola
Go down "Point Koo mah nah"
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for Yankee dollar
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
Drinking rhum and Coca-Cola
Go down "Point Koo mah nah"
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for Yankee dollar
Rhum and Coca-Cola
Rhum and Coca-Cola
Workin' for the Yankee dollar
