Caribbean Recorded by Hank Snow written by Mitchell Torok
G
Have you ever been down to Haiti
D7 When the summer sun was sinking low
There's nothing but romance just ever where you glance
G And the native hearts are all a glow
But when the Cuban Queen comes upon the scene
C They all stare like a statue out of stone
G
And when they realize what's before their eyes
D7
G The other girls are left all alone
Down in the Caribbean it's not a dream you're seeing
D7 When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm
But from miles away you can see her sway
G To the beat of the Cuban Conga line that forms
Up in a tree so high, way up in the sky
D7 Sits a wide-eyed monkey on a limb
He wonders why the people go to so much trouble
G Just to try to be like him
He doesn't understand that it's a lady's hand
C That makes a heart feel so sublime
G
But before too long he starts singing the song
D7
G And then he gets in the Conga line
Columbus searched for spices but he missed the nicest D7 Part of the Caribbean
He didn't see the charms and the open arms
G It was the gold that he was seeing
Oh but I'm glad he missed the sweetest thing I've kissed
C Cause we're on our honeymoon
G I'm so sorry Chris to talk about you like this
D7
G But you were five-hundred years too soon
