  4. "Rum and Coca-Cola" (1st work) was originally written by Trinidadian songwriters Lord Invader (lyrics) and Lionel Balasco (music). "Although the song was published in the United States with Amsterdam listed as the lyricist and Jeri Sullavan and Paul Baron as musical composers, the melody had been previously published as the work of Trinidadian calypso composer Lionel Belasco with the song title, 'L'Année Passée,' which was in turn based on a folksong from Martinique. The original lyrics to "Rum and Coca-Cola" were written by Rupert Grant, another calypso musician from Trinidad who went by the stage name of Lord Invader"--Wikipedia.
