Lyrics
Puerto Rico You lovely island Island of tropical breezes Always the pineapples growing Always the coffee blossoms blowing And the money owing And the baby's crying And the people trying I like the island Manhattan (I know you do) Smoke on your pipe and put that in! I like to be in America Okay, buy me in America Everything free in America For a small fee in America Buying on credit is so nice One look at us and they charge twice I have my own washing machine What do you have don't you keep clean? Skyscrapers bloom in America Cadillacs zoom in America Industry boom in America 12 in a room in America Lots of new housing with more space (Lots of doors slamming in our face) I'll get a terrace apartment Better you get rid of your accent Life can be bright in America If you can fight in America Life is all right in America If you're all white in America ♪ America La, la, la, la, la, la, America America Here you are free and you have pride Long as you stay on your own side Free to do anything you choose Free to wait tables and shine shoes Everywhere grime in America Organized crime in America Terrible time in America You forget I'm in America ♪ I think I'll go back to San Juan I know a boat you can get on (bye, bye!) Everyone there will give big cheer! (Hey) Everyone there will have moved here Aw, aw, aw! Aw, aw, aw! Aw, aw, aw! ♪ Hey (hey) Hey (hey) ♪ Hey Hi Hey, ha ♪ Hey!
