[Rosalia:]
Puerto Rico,
You lovely island . . .
Island of tropical breezes.
Always the pineapples growing,
Always the coffee blossoms blowing . . .

[Anita:]
Puerto Rico . . .
You ugly island . . .
Island of tropic diseases.
Always the hurricanes blowing,
Always the population growing . . .
And the money owing,
And the babies crying,
And the bullets flying.
I like the island Manhattan.
Smoke on your pipe and put that in!

[Girls:]
I like to be in America!
O.K. by me in America!
Ev'rything free in America.

[Bernando:]
For a small fee in America!

[Anita:]
Buying on credit is so nice.

[Bernando:]
One look at us, and they charge twice.

[Rosalia:]
I have my own washing machine.

[Indio:]
What will you have, though, to keep clean?

[Girls]
[Anita:] Skyscrapers bloom in America,
[Rosalia:] Cadillacs zoom in America,
[Consuelo:] Industry boom in America.

[Guys:]
Twelve in a room in America!

[Anita:]
Lots of new housing with more space.

[Bernando:]
Lots of doors slamming in our face.

[Anita:]
I'll have a terrace apartment.

[Bernando:]
Better get rid of your accent.

[Anita:]
Life can be bright in America.

[Guys:]
If you can fight in America.

[Girls:]
Life is allright in America.

[Guys:]
If your all-white in America.

[Guys:]
la-la-la-la-la America... America
la-la-la-la-la America... America

[Girls:]
Here you are free and you have pride.

[Guys:]
Long as you stay on your own side.

[Girls:]
Free to be anything you choose.

[Guys:]
Free to wait tables and shine shoes!

[Bernando:]
Everywhere grime in America,
Organized crime in America,
Terrible time in America.

[Anita:]
You forget I'm in America.

[Bernando:]
I think I'll go back to San Juan.

[Anita:]
I know a boat you can get on.
[girls] ; bye bye!
[bernardo] ; uh-huh

[Bernando:]
Everyone there will give big cheer!

[Anita:]
Everyone there will have moved here.

[All:]
Ole!
