Intro: A D E D
A D E D
Stashed his trash in Ecua-dor
A D E A
Bought a good suit of clothes
A D E D A D E A
Flew on up to Mexi-co, standin' by the shore
D
Waitin' for some mystery man to pay him for his time
But thinkin' 'bout all the money he'd made
A
Couldn't help to ease his mind
E D A D E D
Havana daydreamin', boy he's just dreamin' his life away
Daddy chopped that sugarcane
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
He just stuck right to his task
Havana daydreamin', oh he's just schemin'
His life away
(INSTRUMENTAL)
Ceiling fan stirs the air
Cigar smoke did swirl
Fragrance on the pillowcase
And he thinks about the girl
Spillin' 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', oh he'll be dreamin'
His life away
