Havana Moon

Havana moon, Havana moon

Me all alone with jug of rum

Me stand and wait for boat to come

Is long the night, is quiet the dark

The boat she late since twelve o'clock

Me watch the tithe easin' in

Is low the moon but high the wind

Havana moon, Havana moonMe all alone, me open the rum

Is long the wait for boat to come

American girl come back to me

We'll sail away across the sea

We'll dock in New York, the buildin's high

We find a home in the sky

Havana moon, Havana moonMe still alone, me sip on the rum

Me wonder when the boat she come

To bring me love, oh sweet little thing

She rock 'n' roll, she dance and sing

She hold me tight, she touch me lips

Me eyes they close, me heart she flip

Havana moon, Havana moonBut still alone me drinkin' the rum

Begin to think the boat no come

American girl she tell a lie

She say, "Till then"

She mean, "Goodbye"

Havana moon, Havana moonMe lay down alone, was good the rum

Me fall asleep, the boat she come

The girl she look till come the dawn

She weep and cry, return for home

The whistle blow, me open me eyes

Was bright the sun, was blue the sky

Me grab me shoes, me jump and run

Me see the boat head for horizon

Havana moon, is gone the rumThe boat she sail, my love she gone

Havana moon, Havana moon

Havana moon, Havana moon
