Havana Burning

If I had a pistol
I could join a revolution
Just like Che
Imagine me
Hunkered down low in the sugarcane
Watching Havana burning
They might say, «Listen here
We got no soap, and we got no beer
We fight for the truth, and the truth is clear.»
I say, «Who you gotta know to get a gun around here?
I wanna see Havana burning.»
And if they’d let me join in
Me and Che would be the best of friends
We’d wait for the day
Someone to say
Put on your camouflage vest
And your black beret
And let’s go watch Havana burning
If I had a pistol
I could join a revolution
Just like Che
Imagine me
Hunkered down low in the sugarcane
Watching Havana burning
