THE CUBANOLA GLIDE
Words by Vincent Bryan; music by Harry Von Tilzer. ©1909.

1. Way down in Cuba where skies are clear,
Where it is summer time all of the year,
Dey has de lovin'est dance I know.
Come along, honey babe, and I'll show you.
Get away closer, hon; squeeze me tight.
Ragadag to de left, den to de right.
Shake it up; shake it up side by side.
Cuddle right up to me as we slide.
Ain't it entrancin' when you're a-dancin'
Dat Cubanola Glide?

CHORUS: Glide; glide; keep on a-glidin'.
Slide; slide; keep on a-slidin'.
Honey, look into your baby's eyes.
Throw your arms around me.
Ain't you glad you found me?
Tease; squeeze, lovin' and wooin'.
O babe, what are you doin'?
Ride to glory by your baby's side,
When you do de Cubanola Glide.

2. I'm goin' crazy, hon; hear dat band!
Ain't it a daisy? It's certainly grand.
Never heard music like dat before.
Rag it some more and we'll glide to glory.
Pucker your rosy lips; lift de lid.
Slip me a lovin' kiss, oh, oh, you kid!
Honey bunch, honey bunch, whisper low.
Tell me you love me, babe; let me know.
I feel so spoony; I'm goin' looney.
Don't ever let me go.
