I nominate "Deal Or No Deal" as #1. #2 could be "Cheers". |

And then for the cynical--"Criminal Minds"--not ours, THEIRS. Keep your stuff locked up and watch yourself on the street. |

This topic has come up before. I have a CD of hits from the 30' and 40's (well before my time). Its a great collection including Bing Crosby, Hoagy Carmichael, Judy Garland, Artie Shaw et. al. One song, Rum and Coca-Cola by the Andrew Sisters talks about GIs going to Tranidad and how "both Mother and Daughter working for the Yankee Dollar." Change Tranidad to Costa Rica and it could be the CRT theme song. Check out the lyrics: If you ever go down Trinidad They make you feel so very glad Calypso sing and make up rhyme Guarantee you one real good fine time Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola Go down Point Koomahnah Both mother and daughter Workin' for the Yankee dollar Oh, beat it man, beat it Since the Yankee come to Trinidad They got the young girls all goin' mad Young girls say they treat 'em nice Make Trinidad like paradise Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola Go down Point Koomahnah Both mother and daughter Workin' for the Yankee dollar Oh, you vex me, you vex me From Chicachicaree to Mona's Isle Native girls all dance and smile Help soldier celebrate his leave Make every day like New Year's Eve Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola Go down Point Koomahnah Both mother and daughter Workin' for the Yankee dollar It's a fact, man, it's a fact In old Trinidad, I also fear The situation is mighty queer Like the Yankee girl, the native swoon When she hear der Bingo croon Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola Go down Point Koomahnah Both mother and daughter Workin' for the Yankee dollar Out on Manzanella Beach G.I. romance with native peach All night long, make tropic love Next day, sit in hot sun and cool off Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola Go down Point Koomahnah Both mother and daughter Workin' for the Yankee dollar It's a fact, man, it's a fact Rum and Coca-Cola Rum and Coca-Cola Workin' for the Yankee dollar |

Lance, my dad used to sing that, but just a line or two. I've heard the original but ever paid attention to the subject. Thanks for sharing the entire lyrics. |
