Lyrics

[00:04.65] Havana moon,
[00:08.89] Havana moon
[00:13.12] Me all alone with jug of rum
[00:17.31] Me stand and wait for boat to come
[00:21.42] Is long the night, is quiet the dark
[00:25.65] The boat she late since twelve o'clock
[00:29.77] Me watch the tithe easin' in
[00:33.93] Is low the moon but high the wind
[00:38.08] Havana moon,
[00:42.25] Havana moon
[00:46.44] Me all alone, me open the rum
[00:50.64] Is long the wait for boat to come
[00:54.65] American girl come back to me
[00:58.90] We'll sail away across the sea
[01:03.05] We'll dock in
[01:04.03] New York, the buildin's high
[01:07.20] We find a home in the sky
[01:11.21] Havana moon,
[01:15.22] Havana moon
[01:19.46] Me still alone, me sip on the rum
[01:23.46] Me wonder when the boat she come
[01:27.64] To bring me love, oh sweet little thing
[01:31.64] She rock 'n' roll, she dance and sing
[01:35.73] She hold me tight, she touch me lips
[01:39.73] Me eyes they close, me heart she flip
[01:43.81] Havana moon,
[01:48.46] Havana moon
[01:52.05] But still alone me drinkin' the rum
[01:56.12] Begin to think the boat no come
[02:00.20] American girl she tell a lie
[02:04.20] She say, "Till then"
[02:06.24] She mean, "Goodbye"
[02:08.31] Havana moon,
[02:12.42] Havana moon
[02:16.46] Me lay down alone, was good the rum
[02:20.55] Me fall asleep, the boat she come
[02:24.62] The girl she look till come the dawn
[02:28.64] She weep and cry, return for home
[02:32.68] The whistle blow, me open me eyes
[02:36.50] Was bright the sun, was blue the sky
[02:40.71] Me grab me shoes, me jump and run
[02:44.72] Me see the boat head for horizon
[02:48.65] Havana moon, is gone the rum
[02:52.83] The boat she sail, my love she gone
[02:56.69] Havana moon,
[03:00.89] Havana moon
[03:04.93] Havana moon,
[03:06.74] Havana moon
[03:07.94]
