I took a trip down to L'America
To trade some beads
for a pint of gold

To trade some beads

L'America L'America L'America
L'America L'America L'America
C'mon people
don't you look so down
You know the rain
man's comin' to town
Change the weather
change your luck
And then he'll teach you
how to find yourself
L'America
Friendly strangers came to town
All the people put them down
But the women loved their ways
Come again some other day
Like the gentle rain
Like the gentle rain that falls
I took a trip down to L'America
To trade some beads
for a pint of gold
I took a trip down to L'America
To trade some beads
for a pint of gold
L'America L'America L'America
L'America L'America L'America
