Calypso Blues |
| Wa-o wa-o |
| Wa-o wa-o wa-o wa-e |
| Wa-o wa-o |
| Wa-o wa-o wa-o wa-e |
| 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 Trinidad |
| Fine calypso woman |
| She cook me shrimp and rice |
| Fine calypso woman |
| She cook me shrimp and rice |
| Dis yankee hot dog |
| Don’t treat me stomach very nice |
| Ah |
| In Trinidad, one dollar buy |
| Papaya juice, banana pie |
| Six coconuts, one female goat |
| And plenty fish to fill de boat |
| One bushel bread, one barrel wine |
| And all de town, she come to dine |
| But here is bad, one dollar buy |
| Cup of coffee, ham on rye |
| Ah |
| Me throat she sick from necktie |
| Me feet she hurt from shoes |
| Me pocket full of empty |
| I got Calypso blues |
| Dese yankee girls 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 jitterbugs 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… |
| I don’t got de money |
| To take me back to Trinidad |
| I don’t got de money |
| To take me back to Trinidad |
| Wa-o wa-o |
| Wa-o wa-o wa-o wa-e |
| Wa-o wa-o |
| Wa-o wa-o wa-o wa-e |
| Wa-o wa-o |
| Wa-o wa-o wa-o wa-e |
| Ah |
