Maria Maria (feat. The Product G&B) - Wyclef Remix

Ladies and gents

Turn up this sound system

To the sound of Carlos Santana

And the GMB's

Ghetto blues from the refugee camp

Oh Maria Maria

She reminds me of a west side story

Growing up in Spanish Harlem

She's living the life just like a movie star

Oh Maria Maria

She fell in love in East L.A.

To the sounds of the guitar, yeah, yeah

Played by Carlos Santana

Stop the looting, stop the shooting

Pick pocking on the corner

See as the rich is getting richer

The poor is getting poorer

Si mira Maria on 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

Ahora vengo mama chola (East coast)

Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola

Ahora vengo mama chola (West coast)

Oh Maria Maria

She reminds me of a west side story

Growing up in Spanish Harlem

She's living the life just like a movie star

Oh Maria Maria

She fell in love in East L.A.

To the sounds of the guitar, yeah, yeah

Played by Carlos Santana

I said a la favella los colores

The streets are getting hotter

There is no water to put out the fire

Mi contar esperanza

Se mira Maria 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

Ahora vengo mama chola (North side)

Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola

Ahora vengo mama chola (South side)

Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola

Ahora vengo mama chola (World wide)

Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola

Ahora vengo mama chola (Open up your eyes)

Maria you know you're my lover

When the wind blows I can feel you

Through the weather and even when we are apart

It still feels like we're together

Oh Maria, yeah

She reminds me of a west side story

Growing up in Spanish Harlem

She's living the life just like a movie star

Oh Maria Maria

Oh, she fell in love in East L.A.

To the sounds of the guitar,

Played by Carlos Santana

Put 'em up y'all

Carlos Santana with the refugee camp

Wyclef

Jerry Wonder

Mr. Santana

GMB

Yo, Carlos, man you're making that guitar cry!
