The Calypso - Artie Shaw and his Orchestra[00:00:00]

I have come from the isle of Trinidad[00:00:16]

On a mission of great importance[00:00:19]

Not as a member of the diplomatic corps[00:00:22]

Nor as an emmisary or ambassador[00:00:25]

I have come to the grand United States[00:00:27]

On a mission of great importance[00:00:30]

Not as a representitve or attache[00:00:33]

But I have come to show America the way[00:00:36]

May I teach you the new Calypso[00:00:40]

Dance from Trinidad West Indies[00:00:42]

It will help to cement[00:00:45]

International goodwill between[00:00:48]

Folks from your continent[00:00:51]

And from my own the Caribbean[00:00:54]

To be expert at the Calypso[00:01:09]

Dance with reckless abandonment[00:01:12]

You must not have a care[00:01:14]

Let your troubles go to your feet[00:01:17]

When your troubles reach there[00:01:20]

Kick them up with a mamba beat[00:01:23]

It's a Calypso custom[00:01:38]

To get romantic at the slightest provocation[00:01:40]

So anytime you hear Calypso syncopation[00:01:43]

If you should have the inclination[00:01:46]

To indulge in osculation[00:01:47]

Then you really caught the spirit of Calypso[00:01:48]

Dance America friendly neighbor[00:01:52]

Dance the rythm of West Indies[00:01:55]

It's delightfully new[00:01:58]

It will bring happiness supreme[00:02:01]

We present it to you[00:02:03]

As a token of our esteem[00:02:06]

The Calypso from Trinidad[00:02:38]
