1. Sugar island Cuba, 
       G7 
   You lay there just for fun, 
         D#                        Dm     C 
   With all your colours and your pals, 
                       F 
   A treasure in the sun, 
                     G 
   Baba da ------- 
 
 
2. Castro makes the poor man rich, 
   And drains the rich mans wealth, 
   He makes the island grey and pale, 
   I wish he were in hell, 
   Baba da ------- 
 
 
 3. Sugar island Cuba, 
   You are no more for sale, 
   This Castro makes the poor man rich, 
   He makes the forests pale, 
   Baba da -------
