Thread Name: Lyr Req: Running down to Cuba
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Running down to Cuba
This is how it looks in the DT. I find the "(I've got a gal about nine feet tall etc. etc._)" at the end a bit weird. (2nd line would be "sleeps in the kitchen with her feet in the hall.")

I know a few other verses (I think), but I don't know the whole song.

Runnin' down to Cuba with a load of sugar
Make her go, you lime juice squeezers

I got a gal, and her name is Jane
I can't tell you where she gives me a pain

Can't find it in Hugill. Maybe someone's got the whole shanty?
