Álbum: Desconhecido
Composição: Desconhecido

[1st verse:]
Not so far from here
Theres a very lively atmosphere
Evrybodys going there this year
And theres a reason
The season opened last July
Ever since the U.S.A. went dry
Evrybodys going there and Im going, too
Im on my way to

[Refrain:]
Cuba, theres where Im going
Cuba, theres where Ill stay

Cuba, where wine is flowing
And where dark-eyed Stellas

Why dont you plan a
Wonderful trip

That only are made in Cuba

Im not a drinking lady, I never smoked a Panatella
But Im a she who likes to be where all is gay, okay!

So let us leave our cares and troubles behind
And tell em our new address

Blind, but nevertheless

[Coda:]
Why dont you travel with us on a train or a bus
To Miami where we can begin
To plan a wonderful trip on a plane or a ship
Thatll take us from Florida to Havana?
See you in C.U.B.A!

[Alternate Lines:]
Cuba, thats where Im going
Cuba, thats where Ill stay

And where those dark-eyed Stellas
