María María
She reminds me of a west side
Story
Growing up in Spanish Harlem
She's living the life just like a
Movie star
María María
She fell in love in East L.A.
To the sounds of a guitar,
Yeah, yeah
Played by Carlos Santana
Stop the looting, stop the shooting
Pick pocking on corner
See as the rich is getting poorer
Se mira María in the corner
Thinking of ways to make it better
In my mailbox there's
An eviction letter
Somebody just said see you later
Ahora vengo mama chola
Mama chola
I said a favella los colores
The streets are getting hotter
There is no water
To put out the fire
Mi canto la esperanza
Se mira María on the corner
Thinking of ways to make it better
Then I looked up in the sky
Hoping of days of paradise
Ahora vengo mama chola
Mama chola
María you know you're my lover
When the wind blows I can
Feel you
Through the weather and
Even when we're apart
It feels like we're together |
