Benjamin Calypso

Bb          F
Oh no - not he
C                            F
How you can accuse him is a mystery
Bb               F
Save him - take me
C                                F
Benjamin is straighter than the tall palm tree

F                       Bb
I hear the steel drums sing their song
C                                    F
They're singing man you know you've got it wrong
Dm                       Gm
I hear the voice of the yellow bird
C                            F
Singing in the tree it is quite absurd
Bb             F
Oh, yes - its true
C                                F
Benjamin is straighter than the big bamboo
Bb            F
No ifs - No buts
C                        F
Benjamin is honest as coconuts

F                          Bb
Sure as the tide wash the golden sand
C                    F
Benjamin is an innocent man
Dm                       Gm
Sure as bananas need the sun
C                     F
We are the criminal guilty ones


Bb          F
Oh no - not he
C                            F
How you can accuse him is a mystery
Bb               F
Save him - take me
C                                F
Benjamin is straighter than the tall palm tree

Bb F C F     Bb F C F
La la la la la la la la...

Bb          F
Oh no - not he
C                            F
How you can accuse him is a mystery
Bb               F
Save him - take me
C                                F
Benjamin is straighter than the tall palm tree


F                          Bb
Sure as the tide wash the golden sand
C                    F
Benjamin is an innocent man
Dm                       Gm
Sure as bananas need the sun
C                     F
We are the criminal guilty ones

Bb          F
Oh no - not he
C                            F
How you can accuse him is a mystery
Bb               F
Save him - take me
C                                F
Benjamin is straighter than the tall palm tree

Bb F C F     Bb F C F
La la la la la la la la...

Bb          F
Oh no - not he
C                            F
How you can accuse him is a mystery
Bb               F
Save him - take me
C                                F
Benjamin is straighter than the tall palm tree
