the train with the rhumba beat

Singer:horton, johnny

way down in jamaica in the tropical heat

i met a gal

we took a trip on the train with the rhumba beat

her eyes were bright and shiny

her lips were red and sweet

her hair was black as the coal they used on the train with the rhumba beat

carry me

carry my wonderin' heart home

i feel her hot lips kiss me above this tropical heat

you can tell my baby i'm a-comin' home on the train with the rhumba beat

soft thumbs are awaiting me

my life will be complete

you can tell my baby i'm a-comin' home on the train with the rhumba beat

carry me

carry my wonderin' heart home

i've traveled this world all over but none could ever beat

the pretty little gal i met and loved on the train with the rhumba beat

her soft thumbs are awaiting me

my life will be complete

you can tell my baby i'm a-comin' home on the train with the rhumba beat

carry me

carry my wonderin' heart home

carry my wonderin' heart home
