Puerto Rico

Lolita standing on the corner

Such beauty in one so young

Her eyes stare only for a moment

With the sun’s glare

She is gone

It’s one world, one world to another

No warning of things to come

The splendour one side of the picture

Only one glimpse have to run

It’s OK down in Puerto Rico

All the people say

Must come back here some day

It’s OK down in Puerto Rico

Come what may there’s always church on Sunday

It’s midday

All the streets are quiet

People sleep through the hot day sun

With darkness atmosphere’s appealing

The night holds promise of things to come

It’s OK here in Puerto Rico

All the people sway

We slip into a new day

It’s OK here in Puerto Rico

If there’s a way we’ll come back here some day

It’s one bar then onto another

In the centre of old San Juan

Ten thousand people standing on the sidewalks

I drink with each and every one

It’s OK here in Puerto Rico

All the people say you must come back here someday

It’s OK here in Puerto Rico

Come what may there’s always church on Sunday

It’s OK here in Puerto Rico

As the people sway

We drink into a new day

It’s OK here in Puerto Rico

If there’s a way we’ll come back here some day
