Minne From Trinidad Lyrics

Aye, aye, aye

(La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la)

Aye, aye, aye

(La-la-la, la-la-la , la-la-la)

Aye, aye, aye

(Aye, aye, aye)

Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye

I'm gonna tell you a story

And there's no moral to be made

But don't forget when your dancing

That somehow the piper must be paid

Down on the Nile in the southern sea's

There lives a lassy named Minne Breeze

And all the natives agree that she's

The hottest thing in Trinidad

When Minne dances I guarantee

With every move of her vertebrae

The temperature jump up ten degree

In Trinidad that isn't bad

Aye, aye, aye, they call her Minne from Trinidad

Aye, aye, aye, they all love Minne from Trinidad

Aye, aye, aye, and all the natives would be so sad

If Minne ever left Trinidad

Although the natives loved Minne so

Minne had herself a steady bow

A fellow known as Calypso Joe

And Minnie swore they'd never part

But they stepped in only as they could

Min won a contest for dancing good

So she went away to Hollywood

When Joe heard that, it broke his heart

Aye, aye, aye, they call her Minne from Trinidad

Aye, aye, aye, she wasn't good but she wasn't bad

Aye, aye, aye, Calypso Joe was so very sad

When Minne up and left Trinidad

In Hollywood Minne traveled far

They changed her name to Minne Lamar

And pretty soon she became a star

The siren of the picture show

But one day Minne got awful mad

A guy got fresh and she said "You cad"

My heart belongs to my Trinidad

My Trinidad Calypso Joe

Aye, aye, aye, they call her Minne from Trinidad

Aye, aye, aye, in Hollywood Minne met her cad

Aye, aye, aye, but there is only one native lad

Gets chinny with Minne from Trinidad

So Minnie gave up her dough and fame

And she went back to from where she came

But when she got there she heard with shame

That her Calypso Joe was dead

When Minne heard that, she almost died

She took a gun to try suicide

But as she started to shoot

She cried, "I think I'd rather live instead"

Aye, aye, aye, they call her Minne from Trinidad

Aye, aye, aye, she went away and they were so sad

Aye, aye, aye, but now the natives are mighty glad

'Cause Minne came back to Trinidad

Aye, aye, aye, they call her Minne from Trinidad

Aye, aye, aye, they all love Minne from Trinidad

Aye, aye, aye, and all the natives will be so sad

If Minne, Minne came back to Trinidad

Aye, aye, aye

(Aye, aye, aye)

Aye, aye, aye

(Aye, aye, aye)

Aye, aye, aye

(Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye)

For Minne

(Minne, for Minne, for Minne)

Minne

(Come home you Minne, poor Minne)

Minne, came back to Trinidad
