Stashed his trash in Ecuador, bought a good suit of clothes.
|
Flew on up to Mexico, standin' by the shore.
|
Waiting for some mystery man, to pay him for his time.
|
Thinkin' about all the money he made,
|
couldn't help to ease his mind
|
Havana daydreamin' oh he's just dreamin' his life away.
|
|
Daddy shucked that sugar cane,
|
One day he fell dead.
|
Jesus had a wanderin' feelin'
|
Swimmin around in his head.
|
Sailin' on a midnight boat,
|
There were no questions asked,
|
Water's so green and the air was so clean
|
That he stuck right to his task, Havana daydreamin',
|
Oh he's just schemin', his life away.
|
|
Ceilin' fan stirs the air
|
Cigar smoke did swirl,
|
A fragrance on the pillow case
|
And he thinks about the girl.
|
Spillin' wine wine and sharin' good times
|
She sure could make him smile.
|
He pays her well but what the hell
|
He'll be movin' in a little while, Havana daydreamin',
|
Havana daydreamin'
|
Oh he'll be dreamin' his life away.
