Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Down in Guantanamo
We still got the ball and chain
Down in Guantanamo
We still got the ball and chain
[Verse 2]
That pretty piece of Cuba
Designed to cause men pain
Whoa, when you're lied up in Cuba
You won't feel the same again
[Verse 3]
Down in Guantanamo (Down in Guantanamo)
Ooh, still waitin' for the big cigars
Down in Guantanamo (Down in Guantanamo)
Mmm, still waitin' for the big cigars
[Verse 4]
Be a beach of promise
Mmm, still guilty with no charge
There's a smoke in the forest
Mmm, and the tumor is gettin' large
[Verse 5]
Down in Guantanamo (Down in Guantanamo)
We still got the ball and chain
Down in Guantanamo (Down in Guantanamo)
We still got the ball and chain
[Verse 6]
Ooh, there's a long road to travel
For justice to make its claim
So let's bring down the gallow
There's a prisoner, say his name
[Verse 7]
Mmm, still waitin' for the big cigars
[Verse 8]
Still waitin' for, still waitin' for the big cigars
[Verse 9]
Oh, still waitin' for the big cigars
