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 USA went dry
Everybody's going there and I'm going too!

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 fella'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

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 a smile
That you haven't had for quite a while?
If you have, then follow me and I'll
Show the way!

Come on along 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 fella's panatellas

Cuba, where all is happy
Cuba, where all is gay!
With so much scotch and rye on the table
I'll drink till I won't be able
To see you in C-U-B-A!
