Round the Bay of Mexico - Harry Belafonte

Round The Bay Of Mexico

Way up Suzyanna

Mexico's the place that I belong in

Round The Bay Of Mexico

Been to sea for a month or more

Way up Suzyanna

Lookin' forward to my time on shore

Round The Bay Of Mexico

The wind is high, the sky is blue

Way up Suzyanna

Bound to anchor in a day or two

Round The Bay Of Mexico

I can see it all before my eye

Way up Suzyanna

A big café and a bottle full o' rye

Round The Bay Of Mexico

Some beans and rice to soothe my taste

Way up Suzyanna

I ain't gonna let nothin' go to waste

Round The Bay Of Mexico

Put some kerchiefs in my bag

Way up Suzyanna

Tell a tale or two so I can really brag

Round The Bay Of Mexico

There's Rosita and Chiquita and pretty maid Bell

Way up Suzyanna

If I meet them all at once I'll never get well

Round The Bay Of Mexico
