the weekend of a private secretary - bernadette peters lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i went to havana
on one of those cruises
for forty nine fifty
to spend a few days
i went to havana
to look at the natives
to study their customs
their picturesque ways
in searching for some local color
i ran across a cuban gent
and he was such a big sensation
i forgot the population
he showed me the city
he taught me the customs
my trip to havana
was quite a success

[bridge]
we had bacardi
i forgot the clock
and we were tardy
in returning to the dock
though i delayed it
even dropped my shawl
the cuban made it
as they gave the final call—
darn it all
[verse 2]
i’m back in the office
i’m punching the time clock
but you can bet my mind
is not on my work
instead of bacardies
i’m ordering bromos
instead of the cuban
i’m stuck with a clerk
the other girls can go to europe
and marry into royalty
and they can get an earl or pasha
or a guy with lots of cash*a
but when i get married
and settle in brooklyn
he may be a sl!cker
he may be a hick or a ruben—
but you can bet that he’ll be cuban

[outro]
sí sí sí
