Sing Calypso!

I found this cool Calypso Song Book at a thrift store.
 (Do I even really need to say that any more? Isn't that where I find almost everything I show you, LOL?)
The playing cards looked sort of "Calypso" to me, so I stuck them into the photo, too:

Written in 1957 by William Attaway, and edited and compiled by Lyle Kenyon Engel, with illustrations by
William Charmatz:

You probably know this one , the "Banana Boat Loader's Song", right?
"Day Oh, Day....Oh,....."

Here's one titled  "Have you Heard?":

And, we have "Cordelia Brown":

"A Band Of Birds"

Oh, and then there's the always-popular "Man Smart, Woman Smarter"!

Love the illustrations, Mr. Charmatz.
