Santana Maria, Maria Lyrics

Ho Maria MariaShe reminds me of a west side storyGrowing up in Spanish HarlemShe's living the life just like a movie star
Ho Maria MariaShe fell in love in East L.A.To the sounds of the guitar, yeah, yeahPlayed by Carlos Santana
Stop the looting, stop the shootingPick pocking on the cornerSee as the rich is getting richerThe poor is getting poorer
Se mira Maria on the cornerThinking of ways to make it betterIn my mailbox there's an eviction letterSomebody just said see you later
Ahora vengo mama chola mama cholaAhora vengo mama chola
Ahora vengo mama chola mama cholaAhora vengo mama chola
I said a la favella los coloresThe streets are getting hotterThere is no water to put out the fireMi canto la esperanza
Se mira Maria on the cornerThinking of ways to make it betterThen I looked up in the skyHoping of days of paradise
Ahora vengo mama chola mama cholaAhora vengo mama chola
Maria you know you're my loverWhen the wind blows I can feel youThrough the weather and even when we're apartIt feels like we're together
