The torch is sick from nectar
The pocket full of empty
The torch is sick from nectar
The pocket full of empty
I got calypso blues
Sitting by the ocean, the girl, she feels so sad
Sitting by the ocean, the girl, she feels so sad
He hasn't got the money to take her back to Trinidad
Fine calypso woman, she cook him shrimp and rice
Fine calypso woman, she cook me shrimp and rice
Those jockey hot dogs done treat me to my very nice
In Trinidad, one dollar buy
Papaya juice and a banana pie
Few coconut and a one female goat
And a plenty of fish to fill up the boat
One bushel bread and a one barrel wine
And all the time she come to dine
But here is five, one dollar buy
Cup of coffee, palm and rye
In Trinidad, one dollar buy
Papaya juice and a banana pie
Few coconut and a one female goat
And a plenty of fish to fill up the boat
One bushel bread and a one barrel wine
And all the time she come to dine
But here is five, one dollar buy
Cup of coffee, palm and rye
The torch is sick from nectar
The pocket full of empty
I got calypso blues
The torch is sick from nectar
She taste the herb from juice
The pocket full of empty
She's got the calypso blues
These jockey girls, they give me scare
With natty roots and rumdy hair
Her eye is false, her face is pink
And full of snot, the girl, she ain't
She jitterbug when she should waltz
I even think her name was false
Calypso girl is good a lot
Is what you see, is what you got
She torch is sick from nectar
The pocket full of empty
I got calypso blues
She torch is sick from nectar
The pocket full of empty
I got calypso blues
Sitting by the ocean, the girl, she feels so sad
Sitting by the ocean, the girl, she feels so sad
He hasn't got the money to take me back to Trinidad
