1
Oh, have you ever been down to Haiti
2
When the summer sun was sinkin' low
3
There's nothin' but romance just everwhere you glance
4
And the native hearts are all aglow
5
But when the Cuban Queen comes upon the scene
6
They all stare like a statue out of stone
7
And when they realize what's before their eyes
8
The other girls are left all alone
9
Down in the Caribbean it's not a dream you're seein'
10
When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm
11
But from miles away you can see her sway
12
To the beat of the Cuban Conga line that forms
13
Up in a tree so high, way up in the sky
14
Sits a wide eyed monkey on a limb
15
He wonders why the people go to so much trouble
16
Just to try and be like him
17
He doesn't understand that it's a lady's hand
18
That makes a heart feel so sublime
19
But before too long he starts to sing the song
20
And then he gets in the Conga line
21
Down in the Caribbean it's not a dream you're seein'
22
When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm
23
But from miles away you can see her sway
24
To the beat of the Cuban Conga line that forms
25
Columbus searched for spices
26
But he missed the nicest part of the Caribbean
27
He didn't see the charms and the open arms
28
It was the gold that he was seein'
29
But I'm glad he missed the sweetest thing I've kissed
30
'Cause we're on our honeymoon
31
I'm so sorry Chris to talk about you like this
32
But you were five hundred years too soon
33
Down in the Caribbean it's not a dream you're seein'
34
When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm
35
But from miles away you can see her sway
36
To the beat of the Cuban Conga line that forms
