If I had one wish it'd be for Cuba to change
Because I think that all the Cubans are in pain
All the joy in the world, from sea to shining sea
Doesn't mean a thing if Cubans aren't free

I just can't be very happy, that's certain
Not as long as your Cubans are hurtin'
Oh, won't you search your soul and find a way to change your mind?
That is my one and only wish
