	C
1.	Have you ever been down to Haiti, when

	G7
The summer sun was sinkin'	low

There's nothin' but romance, just everwhere you glance

	C
And the native hearts are all a-	glow

But when the Cuban Queen comes upon the scene

	F
They all stare like a statue out of	stone

	C
And when they realize what's be-	fore their eyes

	G7	C
The other	girls are left all a-	lone.

	C
2.	Down in the Caribbean, it's not a dream you're seein'

	G7
When you get a glimpse of the lady with the	charm

But from miles away you can see her sway

	C
To the beat of the Cuban Conga line that	forms.

	C
3.	Up in a tree so high, way up in the sky

	G7
Sits a wide-eyed monkey on a	limb

He wonders why the people go to so much trouble

	C
Just to try to be like	him

He doesn't understand, that it's a lady's hand

	F
That makes a heart feel so sub-	lime

	C
But before too long, he starts	singing the song

	G7	C
And then he	gets in the Conga	line.

4. Columbus searched for spices, but he missed the nicest

Part of the Caribbean

He didn't see the charms and the open arms

It was the gold that he was seein'

Oh, but I'm glad he missed, the sweetest thing I've kissed

'Cause we're on our honeymoon

I'm so sorry Chris, to talk about you like this

But you were five-hundred years too soon.

Note. Repeat verses 2 and 3.
