VERSE ONE:
Not So Far From Here
There's a very lively atmosphere
Everybody's going there this year
And there's a reason, the season
Opened last July
Ever Since the U.S.A. went dry
Everybody's going there and I'm going too
REFRAIN:
I'm on my way to Cuba
That's where I'm going
Cuba, that's where I'll stay
Cuba, where wine is flowing
And where dark-eyed Stellas
Light their feller's panatellas
Cuba, where all is happy
Cuba, where all is gay
Why don't you plan a wonderful trip to Havana?
Hop on a ship and I'll see you in C-U-B-A
VERSE TWO:
Take a friend's advice
Drinking in a cellar isn't nice
Anybody who has got the price
Should be a Cuban
Have you been longing for the smile
That you haven't had for quite a while
If you have then follow me and I'll show the way
