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.
