"Havaña Daydreamin'" lyrics

Stashed his trash in Ecuador, bought a good suit of clothes
Flew on up to Mexico, standin' by the shore
Waitin' for some mystery man to pay him for his time
Thinkin' about all the money he'd made couldn't help to ease his mind

Havana daydreamin'
Boy, he's just dreamin' his life away

His daddy chopped that sugar cane, 'til one day he fell dead
Jesús had a wanderin' feelin' swimmin' around in his head
Sailin' on a midnight boat, there were no questions asked
Water so green and the air was so clean, he just stuck right to his task

Havana daydreamin'
Boy, he's just schemin' his life away

Ceiling fan, it stirs the air, cigar smoke does swirl
The fragrance on the pillowcase and he thinks about the girl
Spillin' wine and sharin' good time, she sure could make him smile
He pays her well, but what the hell, he'll be movin' in a little while

Havana daydreamin'
Boy, he's just dreamin' his life away
Havana daydreamin'
The boy, he'll be dreamin' his life away
