Songtexte Maria Maria - Starlite Singers

Ladies and gents
Turn up your sound systems to the sound of Carlos Santana

Oh, Maria, Maria
She remind me of a Westside story
Growin' up in Spanish Harlem
She livin' her life just like a movie star, oh
Maria, Maria
She fell in love in East L.A
To the sounds of a guitar, yeah
Played by Carlos Santana

Stop the looting, stop the shooting
Pickpocketing on the corner (Oh yeah)
See, as the rich is getting richer
The poor is getting poorer (Oh yeah)
See me and Maria on the corner
Thinking of ways to make it better (Oh yeah)
Then in my mailbox, there's an eviction letter
Signed by the judge, says "See you later," yeah

Ahora ven, mamachula, mamachula
Ahora ven, mamachula (East Coast)
Ahora ven, mamachula, mamachula
Ahora ven, mamachula (West Coast)

Maria, Maria
She remind me of a Westside story (Oh)
Growin' up in Spanish Harlem
She livin' her life just like a movie star, oh (Oh)
Maria, Maria
She fell in love in East L.A
To the sounds of a guitar, yeah (By who?)
Played by Carlos Santana

I said la cappella, los dolores
The streets are getting hotter (Oh yeah)
But there is no water to put out the fire
Mi costra de esperanza (Oh yeah)
See me and Maria on the corner
Thinking of ways to make things better (Yeah)
Then I look up in the sky
Hoping that there's a paradise

Ahora ven, mamachula, mamachula
Ahora ven, mamachula (Northside)
Ahora ven, mamachula, mamachula
Ahora ven, mamachula (Southside)
Ahora ven, mamachula, mamachula
Ahora ven, mamachula (Worldwide)
Ahora ven, mamachula, mamachula
Ahora ven, mamachula (Open up your eyes)

Maria, you know you're my lover (Oh yeah)
When the wind blows, I can feel you through the weather
And even when we are apart
Still feels like we're together

Maria, yeah
She remind me of a Westside story
Growin' up in Spanish Harlem
She livin' her life just like a movie star, oh
Maria, Maria, oh
She fell in love in East L.A
To the sounds of a guitar
Played by Carlos Santana

What'm up, y'all?
