Going Down To Cuba 歌词

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 to Cuba with 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 No problem is too difficult to solve Yeah times are tough down there it's true But you know they're going to 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 going to drink the rum mojito And walk out on the Malecon 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 permission 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
