The Hawana Way

by Paul Brady

I WAS DOWN IN A HOLE SNUFFLIN’ LIKE A MOLE

WHEN MY FRIEND ON THE PHONE TOLD ME IT’S OK

THERE’S A PLACE YOU CAN BE.. THE MUSIC SETS YOU FREE

COME ON OVER AND WE’LL DO IT THE HAWANA WAY

CARLOS VARELA, CHU CHU VALDES

MUÑEQUITOS DE MATANZAS, BENNY MORÉ

YEAH, REUBEN GONZALES, WHAT CAN I SAY?

HEY! BARBARITO TORRES!!

 

IF YOUR MIND IS A MESS, YOUR BODY’S IN DISTRESS

CATCH YOUR SORRY SOUL A REST THE HAWANA WAY

THROW YOUR FUTURE TO THE WIND

YOU’LL FIND IT’S NO SIN

START A NEW WAY OF LIVING THE HAWANA WAY

 

SO I DID LIKE SHE SAID, THREW MY SUITCASE ON THE BED

PACKED MY RENNIES, PEPTO-BISMOL, PARACETAMOL

AND I’M FEELIN’ NO PAIN ON SOME FUNKY RUSSIAN PLANE

HEADIN’ DOWN THE CARIBBEAN TO FORGET IT ALL

 

’55 CHEVVIES, ’65 FORDS,

COFFEE SKINNED CHICAS ON THE MALECON

MOJITOS, HABAÑOS… APAGON!!!

HEY COCO TAXI, HANG ON!

 

IF YOUR MIND IS A MESS, YOUR BODY’S IN DISTRESS

CATCH YOUR SORRY SOUL A REST THE HAWANA WAY

THROW YOUR FUTURE TO THE WIND

YOU’LL FIND IT’S NO SIN

START A NEW WAY OF LIVING THE HAWANA WAY

 

GIMME ONE MORE DAY,

BABE I GOTTA STAY

HEAR THAT MUSIC PLAY

THE HAWANA WAY

HAWANA WAY

 

Hey Hey!
