Now if you're looking for a lady to snuggle up in your 
bed
You'd better think about movies or pictures instead
For you don't make love in Panama
Until you've bought a camera

Standing up and down the sidewalks with duty frees in 
their hands
Showing off with a price tag to make you understand
That you don't make love in Panama
Until you've bought a camera

Any kind of little something that you wanna try
All depends on what you buy
For if you buy a watch, that will only keep her smiling

Bring out the old 'greenbacks', show us to your room
Let's make some movies, looking through the zoom into
Love, sweet love in Panama
Let us buy your camera

So if you go to Panama, look down the old street
Pick out the best camera and you'll get a real treat
For you don't make love in Panama
Until you've bought a camera
Ay-yi-yi, Panama!

Any kind of little something that you want to try
All depends on what you buy
For if you buy a watch, that will only keep her smiling

Ay-yi-yi, Panama
Let's all buy a camera!
