F.d.r. In Trinidad

(fitz maclean)

(c) - (g) - (am)  capo on 2



(c) when roosevelt came to the land of the (g) hummingbird  shouts of welcome were (c) heard

Roosevelt came to the land of the (g) hummingbird shouts of welcome were (c) heard

His visit to their (am) island is bound to be an epoch in (g) local (c) history

Definitely (am) marking the new e (g) ra, keeping trinidad in ameri (c) ca



For this great man jubilation, was evinced by the entire population

Friendship for the u.s.a. was shown and from his house to  stars and the stripes were flown

For the state to open the gate to the president of these united states

In fact everybody was glad to welcome roosevelt to trinidad



We are privileged to see the democratic president of the great republic

With his charming and genial personality and his wonderful urbanity

We were struck by his modest style and we were intrigued by the famous roosevelt smile

No wonder why everybody was glad to welcome roosevelt to trinidad



Now we understand that the president has just been on a visit to brazil and the argentine

Mr. cordell hull in attendance they took part in a peace conference

To stop war  and atrocity and make the world safe for democracy

The greatest event in the century in the interest of suffering humanity
