Lyrics
“Gitmo Bay”
You’d better watch out,
You'd better watch out,
You watch out for what you say.
You’d better watch out,
You’d better watch out,
Or that man he will take you away--
Right now, right now
He's gonna to take you down
To Guantanamo Bay
They've got no mercy.
They've got no mercy.
Oh the things they do
They'd turn you pale;
They've got no mercy,
They've got no mercy,
There's no way you'll ever make bail--
That's right, that's right
It's just a long dark night
In the Gitmo jail.
[refrain]
No need to pack your bag,
You're on your way;
Don't need a ticket back home
Cause you're going one way--
At least until your Judgment Day
If a judge ever gives you that day.
No place to run
When your heart is shaking with fear;
No place to hide
If you run for a thousand years
They're sure to take you back one day
Yea, down to Gitmo Bay.
[Repeat "They've got no mercy" above]
[refrain]
No need to pack your bag,
You're on your way;
Don't need a ticket back home
Cause you're going one way--
At least until your Judgment Day
If a judge ever gives you that day.
No use to run
when they've already got your name
No use to hide
when you're sittin' on that plane
It's sure to take you back one day
Yea down to Gitmo Bay.
