If you ever take a vacation There's a place that's quite a sensation Yes we call it Trinidad Lord it almost drove me mad From the time I 'wake in the morning I could tell a great day was dawning Hear a vender in the street Selling juicy things to eat It was Mango, coconut, sugar cane Lord me belly in pain I said Mango, coconut, sugar cane Driving me insane In the market place I went walking Everybody laughing and talking Where you barging for a prize And you wind up paying pies When I shopped around for some punchy Smelling all the food I went hungry Had a taste for something sweet So I stop awhile to eat Walking down the beach really lazy Women start to driving me crazy So I jump into the sea Thought that was the place to be While I'm swimming round in the ocean Saw a woman's body in motion Then and there I make me plan Took the woman by she hand In the evening we went out dancing Held her close and started romancing Listen to the steel band play Bing bong till the break of day Drinking rum that night I got naughty She said Harry not till we merry Now I pass me life's complete Every night I get the treat
