Caribbean - Willie Nelson (威利·纳尔逊)/Hank Snow[00:00:00]
Written by:Mitchell Torok[00:00:01]
Have you ever been down to Haiti[00:00:15]
When the summer sun was sinking low[00:00:18]
There's nothing but romance just every where you glance[00:00:22]
And the native hearts are all aglow[00:00:25]
But when the Cuban queen comes upon the scene[00:00:28]
They all stare like a statue out of stone[00:00:32]
When they realize what's before their eyes[00:00:35]
The other girls are left all alone[00:00:38]
Down in the Caribbean it's not a dream you're seeing[00:00:42]
When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm[00:00:45]
And from miles away you can see her sway[00:00:48]
To the beat of the Cuban conga line that forms[00:00:51]
Up in a tree so high way up in the sky[00:00:55]
Sits a wide eyed monkey on a limb[00:00:58]
He wonders why the people go to so much trouble[00:01:01]
Just to try to be like him[00:01:05]
He doesn't understand that it's a lady's hand[00:01:08]
That makes a heart feel so sublime[00:01:11]
And before too long he starts singing the song[00:01:14]
And then he gets in the conga line[00:01:18]
Columbus searched for spices[00:01:50]
But he missed the nicest part of the Caribbean[00:01:52]
He didn't see the charms and the open arms[00:01:56]
It was the gold that he was seeing[00:02:00]
But I'm glad he missed the sweetest thing I've kissed[00:02:03]
'Cause we're on our honeymoon[00:02:07]
I'm so sorry Chris to talk about you like this[00:02:10]
But you were five hundred years too soon[00:02:13]
Down in the Caribbean it's not a dream you're seeing[00:02:17]
When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm[00:02:20]
And from miles away you can see her sway[00:02:23]
To the beat of the Cuban conga line that forms[00:02:27]
Up in a tree so high way up in the sky[00:02:30]
Sits a wide eyed monkey on a limb[00:02:33]
He wonders why the people go to so much trouble[00:02:37]
Just to try to be like him[00:02:40]
He doesn't understand that it's a lady's hand[00:02:43]
That makes a heart feel so sublime[00:02:47]
And before too long he starts singing the song[00:02:50]
And then he gets in the conga line[00:02:54]
