Thread Name: Lyr Req: Running down for Cuba
Subject: Lyr Add: RUNNING DOWN TO CUBA (from Johnson Girls)
As sung by The Johnson Girls

RUNNING DOWN TO CUBA-2

Running down to Cuba with a load of sugar,
'Way, me boys, for Cuba!
Make her run, you lime-juice squeezers,
Running down to Cuba.

'Way, me boys, for Cuba!
Make her run, you lime-juice squeezers,
Running down to Cuba.

Running down to Cuba with a press of sail…
Flinging the water all over the rail...

Oh, I've got a gal about nine feet tall…
She sleeps in the kitchen with her feet in the hall…

Oh, I've got a gal, her name is Jane…
You can guess where she gives me a pain…

Give me a gal who can dance Fandango…
Cheeks like a melon and sweet as a mango…

Load the sugar and homeward go…
Mr. Mate, he told me so…

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
