here, now and long ago - atilla the hun lyrics
[intro: atilla the hun & lord beginner]
how different is the island we know
to the trinidad of the long ago
how different is the island we know
to the trinidad of the long ago
[verse 1: atilla the hun & lord beginner]
she’s really the dame of the antilles
and the queen of the west indies
with motorcars running up and down
trinidad ‘coming like a new york town
[verse 2: lord beginner]
the island has changed up in different ways
to the trinidad of the bygone days
buildings have sprung up all around
we’ve got a clean and beautiful town
and by visitors we are told
our streets as good as any in the whole wide world
with motorcars running up and down
trinidad ‘coming like a new york town
[verse 3: atilla the hun]
long ago to reach manzanilla shore
it used to take us a week or more
now with the distance twice as far
it take a couple of hours in a motorcar
today we have electric lights in the home
refrigerators, radios, and telephones
with motorcars running up and down
trinidad ‘coming like a new york town
[verse 4: lord beginner]
the south has changed up entirely
san fernando’s a beautiful town to see
pointe*à*pierre which was lost in obscurity
now possesses a giant oil refinery
[?] which presented an awful sight
is now recognized as the tourists’ delight
with motorcars running up and down
trinidad ‘coming like a new york town
[verse 5: atilla the hun]
to see the change we are proud and glad
that has taken place in trinidad
[?] which we must now mention
is none other than the trinidad guardian
then it’s a fact which was once a dream
they started work on the harbor scheme
with motorcars running up and down
trinidad ‘coming like a new york town
