Yerba buena or hierba buena is the Spanish name for a number of aromatic plants, most of which belong to the mint family. Yerba buena translates as "good herb". The specific plant species regarded as yerba buena varies from region to region, depending on what grows wild in the surrounding landscape, or which species is customarily grown in local gardens. Perhaps the most common variation of this plant is spearmint (Mentha spicata). The term has been (and is currently) used to cover a number of aromatic true mints and mint relatives of the genera Satureja or Micromeria. All plants so named have medicinal properties, and some have culinary value as herbal teas or seasonings as well.
In the western United States, yerba buena most often refers to the species Micromeria douglasii (which is sometimes classified as Clinopodium douglasii or Satureja douglasii), but may also refer to Eriodictyon californicum, which is not a member of the mint family.
In parts of Central America yerba buena often refers to Mentha citrata, a true mint sometimes called "bergamot mint" with a strong citrus-like aroma that is used medicinally and as a cooking herb and tea.

No soy italiano no
Pero me piace la pasta
Ní tampoco mejícano
Y me tomo un tequilita
Yo no vivo en Buenos Aires
Yo me tomo un matecito
(Y como soy de la Habana)
Yo me tiro un palo de rón
Yo no soy de Cartagena
Y escucho el grupo Niche
No vengo de Puerto Rico
Pero me gusta la plena
Nunca e ido a Venezuela
Y no soy una sifrina
(Y como soy de la Habana)
Bailo un rico guaguancó

Nunca visité Brazil
Eu gosto do Samba
Y cuando me fuí a Bolivia
La altura no me asentó
Me gusta la marihuana
Pero no soy de Jamaica
(Y como soy de la Habana)
Que bola te digo yo
No nací en Santo Domingo
Y te canto una bachata
Y no soy americano
Pero juego basketball
Y cuando viví en España
Me gustó bailar flamenco
(Y como soy de la Habana)
Me bañe en el Malecón
Donde quiera que tú vayas nena
Yo me voy
Donde quiera que tú vayas nena
Por que soy
Ciudadano del mundo
Cityzen cityzen citysoy

Yo no vengo de Japón
Pero como con palitos
Y tampoco fuí a la China
Y me gusta el alóz frito
Yo no soy de Nueva York
Pero me gusta la salsa
(Y como soy de la Habana)
Yo me voy en una balsa
Yo no fuí a Israel
Pero mi tío es rabino
Y tampoco fuí a Paris
Como me gustán los vinos
Y tengo la barba larga
Pero el no es talibán
(Y como soy de la Habana)
Nos gozamos los Van Van
Donde quiera que tú vayas nena
Yo me voy
Donde quiera que tú vayas nena
Por que soy
Ciudadano del mundo
Cityzen cityzen citysoy

Y yo voy por todo el mundo
Yo me voy en un avión
Y soy de todo el mundo
Y contigo yo me voy
