Arnaldo Tamayo Méndez
Born in Guantanamo on a public patio in the shade Orphaned at one by the will of a gun betrayed You turned thirteen started huffing gasoline to shake these terrestrial ways Hoping on a hurricane to haul you to Hemingway
Where you could be a revolutionary A planetary missionary You just got to defect from effects counter-revelutionary
In '59 hitchhiked 809 kilometers Achin' for space An undiscovered place in the ether Havana bound drawn by audio sound from the rebel radio You enroll in school cause college is cool You aviation dynamo
Yeah, you could be a revolutionary A planetary missionary When your soul's in the sky you fly Tu son Havana Huckleberry
Arnaldo Arnaldo
Moscow made out Mendez Forced him to the Air Academy Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Stardust speaking softly to him and his Mig-15 You dig that starsheen But MiG's renege in time
That's one glum chum Space sick and home dumb With that earth adaption syndrome Cause when you've had a taste The dragon gets chased 'till you're free to roam USSR gave you a gold star and a shot at goin' pro So ready or not You're a Cuban Cosmonaut Blasting to the Inner Cosmos
Now you are a revolutionary A planetary missionary The first black in space Arnaldo, the ace Now you know his history
Arnaldo Arnaldo Arnaldo
