Down in Guantanamo
We still got the ball and chain
Down in Guantanamo
We still got the ball and chain

That pretty piece of Cuba
Designed to cause men pain
Oh, when you light up in Cuba
You won't feel the same again

Down in Guantanamo
Moves you, waitin' for the big cigars
Down in Guantanamo
Mmm, still waitin' for the big cigars

Been a breach of promise
Hmm, still guilty with no charge
There's a-smoke in the forest
Hmm, and the tumour is gettin' large

Down in Guantanamo
We still got the ball and chain
Down in Guantanamo
We still got the ball and chain

Hmm, there's a long road to travel
For justice to make its claim
So let's bring down the gavel
Let the prisoner say his name

Hmm, still waitin' for the big cigars
Still waitin' for, still waiting for the big cigars
Hey, still waitin' for the big cigars
