Lyrics from richardshindell.com, where you can also find an MP3 of this
fabulous song.

 Unburdened of their passengers
 The taxis have all scattered
 The hawkers move their tables out
 They'll be selling no more leather
 The Oslo Queen is set to sail
 From the Port of Buenos Aires
 The ropes are thrown and the big horn moans
 As she slips out of the harbor

 The stowaway is keeping still
 In the dark of his container
 With his blanket and his flashlight
 And a picture of his sweetheart
 He's rationing his batteries
 But right now he can't resist her
 Standing there with her long brown hair
 In that Che Guevara t-shirt

 As the contents of his wallet show
 His plan's a little sketchy
 Three hundred bucks and the bad address
 Of a cousin in Miami
 In a couple months with a little luck
 He'll be wiring home some money
 And even if they send him back
 It'll make a damn good story

 Late at night he ventures out
 Each time a little farther
 Emboldened by his wanderlust
 His boredom and his hunger
 'Til he's standing out on the open deck
 Searching for La Cruz del Sur
 But by-and-by the sky he knows
 Has yielded to another

 The moon shines on the shipping lanes
 Off the coast of Venezuela
 And as he looks out at the oilers
 Riding heavy up to Texas
 He sings a little to himself
 'Luna, luna, luna llena'
 While the moon, a word he's yet to learn
 Betrays him to the cameras

 He's somewhere in Dade County now
 Six weeks without a lawyer
 And on the basis of the evidence
 They could keep him there forever
 Then the guy with the Cuban accent says
 "Do you recognize this picture?"
 And there she is with her long brown hair
 And that Che Guevara t-shirt
