2. Ball and Chain (4:29)
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
Whoa, when you light up in Cuba
You won't feel the same again
Down in Guantanamo
Ooh, still waiting for the big cigars
Down in Guantanamo
Ooh, still waiting for the big cigars
Been a breach of promise
Still guilty with no charge
There's a smoke in the forest
And the tumor is getting large
Down in Guantanamo
We still got the ball and chain
Down in Guantanamo
We still got the ball and chain
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
Mmm, still waiting for the big cigars
Still waiting for
Still waiting for the big cigars
Hey, still waiting for the big cigars
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
Whoa, when you light up in Cuba
You won't feel the same again
Down in Guantanamo
Ooh, still waiting for the big cigars
Down in Guantanamo
Ooh, still waiting for the big cigars
Been a breach of promise
Still guilty with no charge
There's a smoke in the forest
And the tumor is getting large
Down in Guantanamo
We still got the ball and chain
Down in Guantanamo
We still got the ball and chain
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
Mmm, still waiting for the big cigars
Still waiting for
Still waiting for the big cigars
Hey, still waiting for the big cigars
