There's a Spanish girl with Ebony eyes   Selling Cuban coffee and guava pies   While the boys hang at the corner store   Drinkin' Iron Beer, rollin' dice on the floor      There is two old timers talking politics   About the Bay Of Pigs and Alfa '66   Willie Chirino on the radio   Cheguevara is no hero      It's just another day on the South-West side      There's a soldier standing in silk fatigues   Dictating who stays and who leaves   While a desperate man crashes through the gates   There's an uprising at Guantanamo Bay      You don't know what you've got till it's gone   So embrace your freedom, don't ever let go   There's an American flag waving in a Cuban breeze   Fidel Castro is no Jose Martiz      It's just another day on the South-West side   It's just another day on the South-West side   It's just another day on the South-West side      They were born in the ocean   They were baptized by the sea   They find a revolution to fight   Freedom in Miami Beach      It's just another day on the South-West side   It's just another day on the South-West side   It's just another day, it's just another day   It's just another day on the South-West side      Oh, say, can you see?
