Lyrics:
I’m sitting here drinking at the southernmost tip
Down in the Florida Keys
About to take my last rum filled sip
When suddenly it came to me
I looked out across the ocean
To see if I could see
The island where I came from
That’s still a part of me
Sure I ain’t ever been there
I ain’t ever touched that sand
But it’s where my family came from
And it makes me who I am
This deep rooted connection
At times I don’t understand
But as I’m sitting here right now
I’ll tell you man
There’s only 90 miles
And a cigar in my hand
Between me and the Motherland
Well I heard it was Hemmingway’s paradise
Before that island fell
The mojito stopped flowing with mint and lime
You can blame it all on Fidel
How long he’s gonna keep my people down
Well time will only tell
But you cannot take the Cuban’s pride
So Castro can go to hell
And sure I ain’t ever been there
I ain’t ever touched that sand
But it’s where my family came from
And it makes me who I am
This deep rooted connection
At times I don’t understand
But as I’m sitting here right now
I’ll tell you man
There’s only 90 miles
And a cigar in my hand
Between me and the Motherland
My home and my heart is right here
In the good ole USA
But I still got so much love for
The place my family came
The Carribean island paradise
That was taken all away
But brother time is on our side
We gonna get her back one day
And sure I ain’t ever been there
I ain’t ever touched that sand
But it’s where my family came from
And it makes me who I am
This deep rooted connection
At times I don’t understand
But as I’m sitting here right now
I’ll tell you man
There’s only 90 miles
And a cigar in my hand
Just a rum and coke
And a cigar in my hand
It’s every person that I’ve loved
And a cigar in my hand
Between me and the Motherland

Coñooo brother, here I am crying like a baby at 11:59 PM on a Friday evening listening and watching the video of this song. I had to leave my motherland 18 years ago to give my children a better future and to help my family as best as I could. Both my parents are in heaven now and I still have my two only sisters back in Cuba. I love America and I will always be grateful for welcoming us here, but Cuba is deep inside my heart forever. Long live Cuba! Cubano 100%!

This song hits hard. I left Cuba 55 years ago when I was a small child and have never returned. When I was in my 30s and 40s I used to think that one day I might be able to return to a free and democratic Cuba. As I get older (now in my 60s) I don’t believe that will ever happen. Cubans have a saying; “No hay mal que dure 100 años ni cuerpo que lo resista”. This tragedy is on its 65th year with no end in sight. It’s in the hands of GOD and the Cuban people. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 🇺🇸🇨🇺🇺🇸🇨🇺🇺🇸🇨🇺🇺🇸🇨🇺🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Terrible. I was born of Cuban parents. My Sisters, Brothers, Cousins, all were born in Cuba. I'm the only one that wasn't. The only ABC is me.(American Born Cuban). My Mom was raised in Miramar, Havana. She would cry when they showed pictures of a dilapidated Cuba. She died 2019 never seeing her land again, My Dad also. SAD! I'm going someday, IDK when pero algun dia. PATRIA Y VIDA
