Santana - Havana Moon Lyrics






Chant...

Me all alone
Jug of rum
Me stand and wait for the boat to come
Is lonely night is quiet the dark
The boat she late it's 12 o' clock
Me watches the tide easin' in
Is low the moon and high the wind

Havana Moon
Havana Moon

Me all alone
Me open the rum
Is long the wait for the boat to come
American girl come back to me
Sail way across the sea
We dock in New York the buildings high
We find a home up in the sky

Havana Moon...
Havana Moon...

Me still alone me drinkin' the rum
Begin to think that the boat no come
American girl she tell a lie
She say till then, but she mean goodbye

Havana Moon...
Havana Moon...

Me lay down alone, no good the rum
Me fall asleep and the boat she come
The girl she look till come the dawn
She weep and she cry
Return for home
The whistle blow me open my eyes
Bright the sun blue the sky
Me grab me shoes, me jump and me run
Me see the boat head for horizon
Havana Moon is gone da rum
The boat she sail me love she gone

Havana Moon...
Havana Moon...

    She said 'till then' she meant goodbye.
    Great line.
    Great song and album. Been listening to it since early 80s and still love it. Reminds me of what good guitar solos are made of.

  4. R.... S....

    My favorite Santana song along with "She's Not There".

    From the visuals, it seems obvious some Americans are deeply nostalgic for the days when Cuba was captive of the US, a destination for vice. Cuban rum, cigars, and prostitutes. Let's hope the good old days never come back. Viva Castro!

    m.... l....

    matt love oh no, we LOVE the run down, tattered, repressed desperately-clinging-to-communism version even more!! Ahh, I remember those days of Martial law like it was just yesterday....

    m.... l....

    @Bob Saturday damn, don't detonate yourself, Jihad Joe!!

    m.... l....

    @Bob Saturday do you know anyone who's ever lived in Cuba? You should talk to a Cuban expatriate, see how much they loved Fidel. I have a friend who never saw his neighbor again, after soldiers found a fucking ORANGE that wasn't provided to him by the state, during a random contraband sweep of the barrio! And, how the hell do you know that Americans made this video, with some "nostalgia" for Cuba, when it was run by a DIFFERENT corrupt administration, in bed with organized crime. Typical pampered radical that birches about democracy while enjoying everything it has to offer...if you lived in Cuba, we wouldn't even be having this discussion.

    m.... l....

    ...and all run by the mafia. Not a fan of Castro, but he's way better than what came before!

    m.... l....

    lol, exactly....@klmullins65

  12. S.... S....

    I used to inject to this song when I was a newly-diagnosed insulin-dependent diabetic at 19, hundreds of miles away from home at college while my mother had cancer. The words of the song are important, missed love, it all goes wrong, story of my life. This song's part of me now.

    S.... S....

    +Steven Sutherton mate you won't believe how many people have injected to this song......memories man

  13. T.... ....

    Great song and album. But, I always have to run to the turntable when I all of a sudden hear Willie Nelson's voice. I Like Nelson but not when I'm listening to Santana. It scares the crap out of me every time.

    T.... ....

    Damn wish I hadn't read your comment about Willie nelson, Didn't even know he was "helping out" on the album

  14. N.... C....

    The original Chuck Berry version is waaaayyy better! This isn't horrible though.

    N.... C....

    Bruh I just heard the Chuck Berry original and this version for the first time and this is comment is just nostalgia glasses imo. While this version could have been better, it just has a more filled in sound man. Tbh they both kinda bored me but hey, tastes right?

  15. R.... ....

    The lead vocal on "Havana Moon" is by Booker T. Jones, leader of Booker T. & the MGs. Booker also plays organ on this track. The arrangement, lead and background vocals, and guitar work is excellent.
