[Intro]
Hey Jimmy, you know anybody in Miami that can get me a passport real quick? Oh yeah, yeah man. I've got a cousin up there. He knows everything about everything. Let's see if I've got his number here somewhere, yeah. No, he works out of a payphone, oh yeah, I've got it here. Okay. Today's international investor, whatever that is. Yeah, everybody's got a cousin in Miami. Here we go
[Verse 1]
It was was ninety miles to freedom, but they took the risk
Though ocean was all motion and the wind was brisk
The deadly gunboats never saw them in the pale moonlight
They were off to Cayo Hueso by the dawn's early light
[Verse 2]
The gringo in the garden called the custom's man
They answered all his questions, were allowed to land
The ladies shared a hairbrush and their husbands had a Coke
And they were taken up to Krome to meet with their kinfolk
[Chorus 1]
Everybody's got a cousin in Miami
Everybody understands the impromptu
Dancing in the heat to the beat that turns your clothing clammy
Everybody needs to have a dream come true
[Verse 3]
In a third world jungle, not so far away
Lives a natural drummer with a dream to play
He's the brother of the lizard and the flying fish
But he's enchanted by the pictures from the satellite dish
