[00:03.67] ROSALIA
[00:06.22] Puerto Rico,
[00:13.85] You lovely island . . .
[00:17.32] Island of tropical breezes.
[00:24.71] Always the pineapples growing,
[00:29.79] Always the coffee blossoms blowing . . .
[00:34.34]
[00:34.87] ANITA
[00:35.44] Puerto Rico . . .
[00:37.79] You ugly island . . .
[00:41.19] Island of tropic diseases.
[00:47.37] Always the hurricanes blowing,
[00:52.94] Always the population growing . . .
[00:58.21] And the money owing,
[01:01.71] And the babies crying,
[01:05.11] And the bullets flying.
[01:07.73] I like the island Manhattan.
[01:13.56] Smoke on your pipe and put that in!
[01:19.12]
[01:19.50] OTHERS
[01:20.67] I like to be in America!
[01:25.17] O.K. by me in America!

[01:43.21] Hundreds of flowers in full bloom.
[01:44.24]

[01:45.26] Hundreds of people in each room!
[01:46.56]
[01:47.14] ALL
[01:48.20] Automobile in America,
[01:50.23] Chromium steel in America,
[01:52.41] Wire-spoke wheel in America,
[01:54.81] Very big deal in America!
[01:57.81]
[01:58.87] ROSALIA
[02:00.71] I'll drive a Buick through San Juan.
[02:03.33]
[02:03.64] ANITA
[02:03.99] If there's a road you can drive on.
[02:06.44]
[02:06.93] ROSALIA
[02:07.51] I'll give my cousins a free ride.
[02:09.51]

[03:15.79]
[03:16.24] ALL
[03:16.68] I like the shores of America!
[03:19.04] Comfort is yours in America!
[03:21.36] Knobs on the doors in America,
[03:23.75] Wall-to-wall floors in America!
[03:32.45]
[04:06.91] ROSALIA
[04:08.53] When I will go back to San Juan.
[04:13.04]
[04:13.49] ANITA
[04:13.78] When you will shut up and get gone?
[04:15.96]
[04:16.69] ROSALIA
[04:16.99] Everyone there will give big cheer!
[04:19.02]
[04:19.27] ANITA
[04:19.50] Everyone there will have moved here!
[04:23.21]
