about

I have to thank my wife Cynthia for this...I was in the studio, messing around with things, and came up with the basic groove, but she came in and had the title immediately. A tune about some small-time cons who get into a little trouble, but have a delightful plan to escape it. Does it work? Ah, that's another song.

lyrics

You know it isn't bad here, but it's starting to get cold
This living as a fugitive is starting to get old
And the people I owe money to are bringing me right down
I think it's time for us to leave this town

The cruise is just a short one, we're in Havana in a while
Our host will meet us at the dock with his trademark charming smile
His beard might have some grey but there's a twinkle in his eye
I think that things are gonna turn out fine

We'll be smoking cigars with Fidel
We'll be smoking cigars with Fidel
On the sunny Cuban beaches, we know all will be quite well
We'll be smoking cigars with Fidel

We'll play a game of baseball, and we'll be sure to let him win
That's one guy you don't want to have his patience running thin
And to his shining city, well, he'll give to us the key
Just as long as we don't try to disagree

We'll be smoking cigars with Fidel
We'll be smoking cigars with Fidel
On the sunny Cuban beaches, we know all will be quite well
We'll be smoking cigars with Fidel

Todd was here before. Perhaps you recognize him from back then. He looked different then, though. If you think he owes you any money, he was probably some other guy. Those other guys are gone now. We think they may be in Guam, or possibly Kansas.
