Carribbean - Hank Snow[00:00:00]
Have you ever been down to Haiti[00:00:03]
When the summer sun was sinkin' low[00:00:06]
There's nothing but romance[00:00:09]
Just everywhere you glance[00:00:11]
And the native hearts are all aglow[00:00:12]
But when the Cuban Queen comes upon the scene[00:00:15]
They all stare like a statue out of stone[00:00:18]
When they realize what's before their eyes[00:00:21]
The other girls are left all alone[00:00:24]
Down in the Caribbean[00:00:27]
It's not a dream you're seein'[00:00:28]
When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm[00:00:30]
And from miles away you can see her sway[00:00:33]
To the beat of the Cuban Conga line that forms[00:00:36]
Up in a tree so high way up in the sky[00:00:39]
Sits a wide eyed monkey on a limb[00:00:42]
He wonders why the people go to so much trouble[00:00:45]
Just to try to be like him[00:00:48]
He doesn't understand that it's a lady's hand[00:00:51]
That makes a heart feel so sublime[00:00:54]
And before too long he starts singing the song[00:00:57]
And then he gets in the Conga line[00:01:00]
Columbus searched for spices[00:01:26]
But he missed the nicest part of the Caribbean[00:01:28]
He didn't see the charms and the open arms[00:01:32]
It was the gold that he was seein'[00:01:36]
But I'm glad he missed[00:01:38]
The sweetest thing I've kissed[00:01:40]
'Cause we're on our honeymoon[00:01:42]
And I'm so sorry[00:01:44]
Chris to talk about you like this[00:01:46]
But you were five hundred years too soon[00:01:48]
Down in the Caribbean[00:01:50]
It's not a dream you're seein'[00:01:52]
When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm[00:01:53]
But from miles away you can see her sway[00:01:56]
To the beat of the Cuban Conga line that forms[00:02:00]
Up in a tree so high way up in the sky[00:02:02]
Sits a wide eyed monkey on a limb[00:02:06]
He wonders why the people go to so much trouble[00:02:08]
Just to try to be like him[00:02:11]
He doesn't understand that it's a lady's hand[00:02:14]
That makes a heart feel so sublime[00:02:17]
But before too long he starts singing the song[00:02:20]
And then he gets in the Conga line[00:02:23]
