《Caribbean》歌词

[00:00:00] Caribbean - Hank Snow/D.R

[00:00:07] Have you ever been down to Haiti

[00:00:09] When the summer sun was sinkin' low

[00:00:13] There's nothing but romance

[00:00:14] Just everywhere you glance

[00:00:16] And the native hearts are all aglow

[00:00:19] But when the Cuban Queen comes upon the scene

[00:00:22] They all stare like a statue out of stone

[00:00:26] When they realize what's before

[00:00:28] Their eyes the other girls are left all alone

[00:00:32] Down in the Caribbean it's not a dream you're seein'

[00:00:35] When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm

[00:00:38] And from miles away you can see her sway

[00:00:42] To the beat of the Cuban Conga line that forms

[00:00:45] Up in a tree so high way up in the sky

[00:00:48] Sits a wide eyed monkey on a limb

[00:00:51] He wonders why the people go to so much trouble

[00:00:54] Just to try to be like him

[00:00:57] He doesn't understand that it's a lady's hand

[00:01:00] That makes a heart feel so sublime

[00:01:04] And before too long he starts singing the song

[00:01:07] And then he gets in the Conga line

[00:01:23] Columbus searched for spices

[00:01:24] But he missed the nicest part of the Caribbean

[00:01:29] He didn't see the charms and the open arms

[00:01:32] It was the gold that he was seein'

[00:01:35] But I'm glad he missed the sweetest thing I've kissed

[00:01:38] 'Cause we're on our honeymoon

[00:01:41] I'm so sorry Chris to talk about you like this

[00:01:45] You were five hundred years too soon

[00:01:48] Down in the Caribbean it's not a dream you're seein'

[00:01:51] When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm

[00:01:54] And from miles away you can see her sway

[00:01:57] To the beat of the Cuban Conga line that forms

[00:02:00] Up in a tree so high way up in the sky

[00:02:04] Sits a wide eyed monkey on a limb

[00:02:06] He wonders why the people go to so much trouble

[00:02:10] Just to try to be like him

[00:02:13] He doesn't understand that it's a lady's hand

[00:02:16] That makes a heart feel so sublime

[00:02:19] And before too long he starts singing the song

[00:02:22] And then he gets in the Conga line
