(Fields & McHugh, Frank Loesser)      On beautiful tropical Trinidad Isle   Where Caribbean breezes play   The quaint little natives will greet you    And smile as they welcome you    This way   As they welcome you    This way      Upon the isle I'm from which we come   We have a national characteristic    Which is very strong   Because we put the accent upon a wrong syllable    And we sing a tropical song   Upon the isle I'm from which we come   The point of interest beside the coconuts   is that we put the accent upon the wrong syllable    And we sing a tropical song      We could show the natural wonders of the scenery    To you   We could show the native birds & perhaps give two or three   To you   And describe the climate & also tell the elevation   We could very hastily introduce the population   We could show you the hotel & the need of places   We could take you to the bar & visitors may fall upon their faces   If only we had a track we could probably take you to the races   But we prefer to accquaint you with the following interesting fact      That on the isle I'm on from which we come   We have a national characteristic    Which is very strong   And if you should remain here    You will discover one peculiar thing    Before very long   That you have put the accent upon the wrong syllable    And you sing a tropical song   And so we say welcome   To you
