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

And the money owing

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

OK by me in America

Everything free in America

For a small fee in America

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

Wire spoke wheel in America

Very big deal in America

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 Rico's in America

I'll bring a TV to San Juan

If there a current to turn on

I'll give them new washing machine

What have they got there to keep clean

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 will have moved here
