[Verse 1]
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
Resolved to cause men pain
When you light up in Cuba
You won't feel the same again
[Verse 2]
Down in Guantanamo
Still waiting for the big cigars
Down in Guantanamo
Still waiting for the big cigars
Been a breach of promise
Still guilty with your charge
There's smoke in the forest
And the tumor is growing large
[Verse 3]
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
Let's bring down the gavel
Let the prisoner say his name
[Outro]
We still got the ball and chain
We still got the ball and chain
Let the prisoner say his name
Guantanamo was written by Pete Townshend.
Pete Townshend released Guantanamo on Mon Jun 29 2015.
