Going Down to Cuba |
| Sometimes I get to feeling low |
| Wish I could just pick up and go Somewhere new change my point of view |
| Maybe somewhere I don’t know |
| Toss the idea to and fro |
| Not sure what makes it come and go There it is again sweet music on the wind |
| Over the Gulf of Mexico |
| I’m going to down to Cuba someday soon |
| Following that Caribbean moon |
| It’s been too long since I’ve been there |
| I’m going down there to see my friends |
| Down where the rhythm never ends |
| Where women wear gardenias in their hair |
| People will tell you it’s not easy |
| You’re not supposed to go, they say |
| They say that Cuba is the enemy |
| I’m going down there anyway |
| I’m going down to Cuba to see my friends |
| Down where the rhythm never ends |
| And no problem is too difficult to solve |
| Yeah times are tough down there it’s true |
| But you know they’re gonna make it through |
| They make such continuous use of the verb to resolve |
| They’ve got to deal with that embargo |
| Enough to drive any country insane |
| They might not know the things you and I know |
| They do know what to do in a hurricane |
| Maybe I’ll go through Mexico |
| Old Jesse Helms don’t have to know |
| Anyway all the allies of the USA |
| Travel to Cuba everyday |
| I’m going down to Cuba to see my friends |
| Down where the rhythm never ends |
| Where by comparison my trouble will just unravel |
| I’m North American, you know |
| Don’t like to hear where I can’t go Free people will insist on the freedom to travel |
| I’m gonna drink the running mojito |
| And walk out on the malecón |
| In one hand a monte cristo |
| And in the other an ice cream cone |
| I’m going down to cuba with my band |
| We’re going to formulate a plan |
| Whereby we obtain that cultural delusion |
| If I told you once I told you thrice |
| It’ll put a smile on your face to see a Chevrolet with a soviet transmission |
| I bet the country cast a spell |
| And there are things I think of still |
| Like the beauty of that woman that spoke to me In the hotel nacional |
| I’m gonna book my flight today |
| I’m definitely on my way |
| Just hold my place and I’ll get back in the race |
| And I’m back in the USA |
