Havana Daydreamin
By: jimmy buffett
1975
Stashed his trash in ecuador
Bought a good suit of clothes
Flew on up to mexico
Standin by the shore
Waitin for some mystery man
To pay him for his time
But thinkin about all the money hed made
Couldnt help to ease his mind
Havana daydreamin
Boy hes just dreamin
His life away
His daddy chopped that sugar cane
One day he fell dead
Jesus had a wanderin feelin
Swimmin around in his head
Sailin on a midnight boat
There were no questions asked
The water so green and the air was so clean
He just stuck right to his task
Havana daydreamin
Boy hes just schemin
His life away
(instrumental)
Ceilin fan it stirs the air
Cigar smoke does swirl
The fragrance on the pillowcase
And he thinks about the girl
Spillin wine and sharin good times
She sure could make him smile
He pays her well but what the hell
Hell be movin in a little while
Havana daydreamin
Boy hes just dreamin
His life away
Havana daydreamin
Boy hell be dreamin
His life away

Havana Moon
Chant...
Me all alone
Jug of rum
Me stand and wait for the boat to come
Is lonely night is quiet the dark
The boat she late its 12 o clock
Me watches the tide easin in
Is low the moon and high the wind
Havana moon
Havana moon
Me all alone
Me open the rum
Is long the wait for the boat to come
American girl come back to me
Sail way across the sea
We dock in new york the buildings high
We find a home up in the sky
Havana moon...
Havana moon...
Me still alone me drinkin the rum
Begin to think that the boat no come
American girl she tell a lie
She say till then, but she mean goodbye
Havana moon...
Havana moon...
Me lay down alone, no good the rum
Me fall asleep and the boat she come
The girl she look till come the dawn
She weep and she cry
Return for home
The whistle blow me open my eyes
Bright the sun blue the sky
Me grab me shoes, me jump and me run
Me see the boat head for horizon
Havana moon is gone da rum
The boat she sail me love she gone
Havana moon...
Havana moon...

Havana Gang Brawl
Well the cops are at the door
And you know that they want more
They've got spears, made for arms
Tried to lure you with their charms
You can hear the guns outside
Watching riots with their eyes
As you move from wall to wall
Hear the siren from the gang brawl
Line the locals one by one
Filling bullets with their guns
Are you red, or if you're blue
Cause tonight their gonna find the truth
Take no prisoners today
For the future will be laid
One big city, one big town
Everyone with the same crown
Havana Gang Brawl
Havana Gang Brawl
Havana Gang Brawl
Oh where will you sleep tonight?
Oh where will you sleep tonight?
A doomed old day for engagements
They have torn up your arrangements
All the mothers, buying razors
For the future will be dangerous
You try desperately to leave
But all the trains are dry for steam
All the taxis on their sides
All the planes are burning bright
Havana Gang Brawl
Havana Gang Brawl
Havana Gang Brawl
Oh where will you sleep tonight?
Oh where will you sleep tonight?
Only one option left
To survive or you'll be dead
Do you hide now from the sin
Or do your blazing guns begin?
All the shops are up for sale
You might make it out on bail
All the fathers shine today
Making sure that son's ok
Havana Gang Brawl

Havana Gang Brawl
Oh where will you sleep tonight?
Oh where will you sleep tonight?
Oh where will you sleep tonight?
Oh where will you sleep tonight?

I'm Still Dreamin'
I know people who lose their lovers
Turn around and they find another
Fall in love and then they break up
But I don't know if I want to wake up
'Cause I'm still dreamin'
I'm still dreamin', baby
I'm still dreamin'
Whoa, about you
Other women walk right up to me
I hear them talking but it goes right through me
I know its love that's on the line
But they don't know what's on my mind
Cause I'm still dreamin'
I'm still dreamin', baby
I'm still dreamin'
Whoa, about you
It's like a voice that's always calling
It's like a feeling that I'm always falling
I close my eyes and all I see is you, you, you
Cause I'm still dreamin'
I'm still dreamin', baby
I'm still dreamin'
Whoa, about you
(Key Change)
I'm still dreamin'
I'm still dreamin', baby
I'm still dreamin'
I'm still dreamin', baby
Dreamin about you baby
I'm still dreamin'
Keep on dreamin about you baby
I'm still dreamin'
I'm still dreamin', baby

Dreamin
I sit and wonder
How my life would be
If you were here with me
What a beautiful fantasy
Early in the morning
I find myself with tears in my eyes
From a dream that youre featured in
And it hurts deep inside
To know that you wont let me in to your life
And I wonder why
Im going crazy
I keep thinking about your foolish smile
Here I go I just cant stop
Dreamin
Dreamin
All the time
Im dreamin of all the joy we could have baby
Dreamin
Dreamin
For your heart
Im dreamin of all the love that we could share
Its my decision
To leave you now
Just because it hurts too much
Knowing youll never give enough
But how I long to
Experience the magic of your touch again
Now youre always on my mind
I just cant stop
Dreamin
Dreamin
All the time
Im dreamin of all the time we could have baby
Dreamin
Dreamin
For your heart
Im dreamin of all the love that we could share
I think of the time we had
Youre making me want you so bad
Im watching you walk away
But I wish I could make you stay
The only thing that I can do
Is baby baby to dream of you
I wake up in the morning thinking bout you baby
All the time and the time that we could be together yeah

Speakin Of The Devil
Hes got a way of walkin
Hes got a way of talkin
A way to fascinate me all the time
And hes got a way with women
A way to keep my head a swimmin
Hes got away too many times
Chorus:
Ooh, speakin of the devil
Well, here he comes now
Lookin like an angel
Got my defenses down
Hes got me dreamin
Got me schemin
Ooh, speakin of the devil
He is drivin me wild
With that wicked little grin
And that fire in his eyes
Hes got me dreamin
Got me steamin
Ooh, speakin of the devil
It feels mighty close to heaven
And Id go through hell to make him mine
Hes got his spell upon me
Got to be his one and only
Burning with passion and desire
Ooh, Im caught up in all his magic
It surely would be tragic
To never share the heat
From all this fire
Repeat chorus twice
Speakin of the devil
Speakin of the devil
Id go through hell to make him mine

Sleeper Train
Written by dewey bunnell, bill mumy, and robert haimer, 1994
Found on hourglass.
I was on a sleeper train
Bound for anywhere
And I was gazin out the window
In a long stare
Watchin the sage brush go by
And a pink and yellow sky
Thinkin bout your eyes
Feelin good to be alive
I was dreamin of you
Feelin lucky
I was dreamin of you
Feelin lucky
And I was watchin the towns drift into view
Listenin to my thoughts of you
And the rhythm of the wheels
And the shadows on the hills
Leavin one more life behind
Never knowin what Id find
Such a distant great expanse
And the dust-devils, they dance
And I was dreamin of you
Feelin lucky
I was dreamin of you
Feelin lucky
Abandon everything that went before
Ahead now lies another open door
Abandon everything that went before
I was on a sleeper train
Bound for anywhere
And I was gazin out the window
In a long stare
Watchin the sage brush go by
And a pink and yellow sky
Thinkin bout your eyes
Feelin good to be alive
I was dreamin of you
Feelin lucky
I was dreamin of you
Feelin lucky
I was dreamin of you
Feelin lucky
I was dreamin of you
Feelin lucky
The train kept rollin

Tell Me Im Not Dreamin
(too good to be true)
Moonlight took me by surprise
light coming from your eyes
Are you with me
Am I here with you
Are we in paradise
Tell me Im not dreamin
I know Ive been here before
You go, then you come back for more
Its a mystery how you disappear
Like a shadow in the night
Tell me Im not dreamin
Chorus:
Are you too good to be true
Tell me Im not dreamin
Are you too good to be true
Tell me Im not dreamin
Midnight images of you
You slipped, slipped into my room
Could be magic, could be fantasy
Could it be that were in love
Tell me Im not dreamin
Your voice whispers in the dark
You talk, talking to my heart
Are you with me
Am I here with you
Are we in paradise
Tell me Im not dreamin
(chorus)
When the morning comes
Wake me with your love
Let me know that Im not dreamin
Tell me this is real
Show me how you feel
Say its what we both believe in

What I'm Dreamin' Of (Love Ballad) :
She's the girl on my mind.
She is there all the time.
She is what I'm dreamin' of..
She's like the cool breeze of summer.
As it crosses the ocean.
She is like the candlelight.
She is like the candlelight.
She's the girl on my mind.
She is there all the time.
She is what I'm dreamin' of.
What I'm dreamin' of..
She's like a kite on a string.
Like a bird out in flight.
Like a feather in the wind.
Like a feather in the wind.
She's the girl on my mind.
She is there all the time.
She is what I'm dreamin' of.
What I'm dreamin' of..
She's like a boat on a river.
Like a ship on the ocean.
Like a sailboat out to sea.
A sailboat out to sea..
She's the girl on my mind.
She is there all the time.
She is what I'm dreamin' of.
What I'm dreamin' of...
What I'm dreamin' of...

Boye
My little Havana,
Let my artistic encounters ginger you up;
For i am swimming in this water of love again,
And i need you beside me.
Yes, no retreat and no surrender!
But be my coach on this love;
For you are very merciful to my heart.
My name is Boye and i love you,
Oh my little Havana come to me;
For i will lie down low and sleep in peace with you.

Dreamin' About You
Beyond the words
Of beauty and desire
A memory of you
Sets me on fire
Your voice was magic
Your eye's will paralyze
I fell out of your spell
I was mesmerized
(Chorus)
I wish you would make it real
(Dreamin about you)
If only you knew that I was
(Dreamin about you)
If my wishes could come true
(Dreamin about you)
You've got to got to know that I am
(Dreamin about you)
Even when your heart
I could not find
I keep you locked up
Inside my mind
You dance through my thoughts
All of the time
To want someone this bad
Just must be a crime
(Chorus)
Dreamin about you
Every day and every night
(Guitar Solo)
Oh life's just a battle
I fight it every day
Sometimes I wonder
If it's worth it to stay
But when I'm down
It's you I'm thinking of
Someone special
Somebody I can love

Time Stood Still
Walkin' along the sea and thinkin'
Deep in a reverie I'm sinkin'
Blind to the world, to myself I'm talkin'
Schemin' and dreamin' and sleepwalkin'
Dreamin' of colors, dreamin' of sounds
Dreamin' of things that can't be wrote down
Slippin' away so no one will miss me
Waitin' for angels to kiss me and bliss me
Time stood still
And nobody knew but me and you
What's the meaning of all that I've seen
All those images up on the screen
Which is the channel that's goin' to show me
Answers to questions I don't even know
This is the light I stand in the glare of
I'm here and I'm there, but I'm always aware of
Singin' a song in the back of my mind
Something mysterious, something divine
How many hours, I hear you breathing?
How many days, I smell your skin?
How many years, I watch the ceiling?
How many times, the fog comes rollin' in?
This is the light I stand in the glare of
I'm here and I'm there, but I'm always aware of
Singin' the song in the back of my mind
Something mysterious, something divine
Time stood still
And nobody knew but you and I

This Aint Havana
I had no advantage over you.
There was troubles and I had em too.
Just cause youre so stung out.
Dont mean it cant work out.
Ba-ba-banana, this aint havana.
Do you like bananas, ba-ba-bananas.
Say youre a victim of society.
You ask them for your mercy.
Just like the cats in the garbage cans.
Whens their time coming, man.
You better offer some resistance.
You better give up on my insistence.
Things happen overnight.
You dont give up without a fight.
Ba-ba-banana, this aint havana.
Do yo like bananas, ba-ba-bananas.
You say youre poor and uneducated.
You aint gotta chance cause youre hated.
Youre on your way to lifes promotion.
You hinder it with emotion.
Ba-ba-banana, this aint havana.
Do yo like bananas, ba-ba-bananas.

Dreamin Man
Im a dreamin man, yes, thats my problem
I cant tell when Im not being real.
In the meadow dusk I park my aerostar
With a loaded gun and sweet dreams of you.
Ill always be a dreamin man
I dont have to understand
I know its alright.
I see your curves and I feel your vibrations
You dressed in black and white, you lost in the mall
I watch you disappear past club med vacations
Another sleepless night, a sun that wont fall.
Ill always be a dreamin man
I dont have to understand
I know its alright.
Now the night is gone, a new day is dawning
And our homeless dreams go back to the street
Another time or place, another civilization
Would really make this life feel so complete.
Ill always be a dreamin man
I dont have to understand
I know its alright.
Dreamin man
Hes got a problem
Dreamin man
Dreamin man
Hes got a problem
