Lyrics
Puerto Rico, you lovely island
Island of tropical breezes
Always the pineapples growing
Always the coffee blossoms blowing
Puerto Rico, you ugly island
Island of tropic diseases
Always the hurricanes blowing
Always the population growing
Mi amiga!
And the money always
And the babies crying
And the bullets flying
I like the island Manhattan
Smoke on your pipe and put that in
I like to be in America
Okay by me in America
Everything free in America
For a small fee in America
รndale!
I like the city of San Juan
I know a boat you can get on
Hundreds of flowers in full bloom
Hundreds of people in each room
Automobile in America
Chromium steel in America
Wired for free in America
Very big deal in America
รndale pero suavecito para chiquitito de aquรญ
I'll drive a Buick through San Juan
If there's a road you can drive on
I'll give my cousins a free ride
How you get all of them inside?
Immigrant goes to America
Many hellos in America
Nobody knows in America
Puerto Ricans in America
รndale amiga!
I'll bring a TV to San Juan
If there's a current to turn on
I'll get a new washing machine
What have they got there to keep clean?
Nada!
I like the shores of America
Comfort is yours in America
Knobs on the doors in America
Wall-to-wall floors in America
When I will go back to San Juan
When you will shut up and get gone
Everyone there will give big cheer
Everyone there would have moved here
