Good morning, Mother Cuba, how do you do?
Me hear say you buy one new pair of shoes
Me hear say you buy one brand new hat
Mother Cuba, tell me how much you pay for that hat

Then a rock combine in a me sand dampe, rock combine
I said, rock combine in a me sand dampe, rock combine

I said, the higher the hill, the greener the grass
The younger the gal is, the sweeter she kiss

I said, rock combine in a me sand dampe, rock combine
Then a rock combine in a me sand dampe, rock combine

I said, gal in a tree a pick her ackee
Boy underneath a wash him khaki pants

Rock combine in a me sand dampe, rock combine
Then a rock combine in a me sand dampe, rock combine

I said, engine a run with fire an' coal
Look pon the gal with her big nose-hole

Rock combine in a me sand dampe, rock combine
Then a rock combine in a me sand dampe, rock combine
