One Day In Trinidad

One day in Trinidad Was with my brother Down in San Fernando See a girl walking up the street From the store window And I ask roger If he knows her And when we came out side She was already in a car Then she looks at me As the car drives away Couldn’t get her of my mind Thought of her the whole day And roger say don’t worry We will try to find her You full the tank with gas And I will drive the car So we start from princess town Thru Claxton Bay /Pointe-a-Pierre We reach all the to St. Mary's / Waterloo But the girl was no where Who is this mystery lady? I am looking for in Trinidad Don’t even know her name But want to meet her very bad Roger say lets call we Cousin Julie She know people from Couva to Caratal She ask we how the girl look Then say boy I don’t know her at all Stop and drink some coconut water Then drive up to Port of Spain Pass thru Maracas Bay/Santa Cruz But we didn’t see her again Who is this mystery lady? Some where in Trinidad Don’t even knows her name But still I’m feeling sad From St. Ann's/Cascade/Mon Repos To debe/penal/ Barrackpore From maracas/st.joseph/lopinot But we never see her no more So we when to mayaro beach Beautiful day with the sky so blue We stop to buy some doubles from a girl And you will never guess who Now having bee’s ice cream couple years after She laughs when our baby mess her blouse We been married two years now And having bar be que by Julie’s by house
