Wyclef Jean, Lauryn Hill - Guantanamera lyrics
[Wyclef Jean, Lauryn Hill - Guantanamera lyrics]
Hola, soy Celia Cruz y estoy aqui con Wyclef
Celebrando el Carnaval azúcar guantanamera
We out here in Miami just shinin'
(Guajira, guantanamera)
Worldwide (Guantanamera)
'Bout to bring it to you in stereo
(Guajira, guantanamera)
That was then, this is now
Welcome to The Carnival, the arrival
(Come on) spanish Harlem (Oh, yeah, oh)
Boogie Down Bronx (Oh, yeah, oh)
Manhattan (Oh, yeah, oh)
Back to Staten (Oh, yeah, oh)
(Guantanamera) Hey, yo
I'm standing at the bar with a Cuban cigar
(Guajira, Guantanamera) Hey, yo
I think she's eyein' me from afar
(Guantanamera, guajira, guantanamera)
Yo, I wrote this in Haiti overlookin' Cuba
I asked her what's her name, she said
"Guantanamera"
Remind me of an old Latin song
My uncle used to play
On his old forty-five when he
Used to be alive
She went from a young girl to a grown woman
Like a virgin, so she sex with no average man
Peep the figure, move like a caterpillar
Fly like a butterfly
Let your soul feel her glide
Pac Woman, better yet Space Invader
If your name was Chun-Li
We'd be playin' Street Fighter
Penny for your thoughts
A nickel for your kiss
A dime if you tell me that you love me
(Guantanamera) Hey, yo
I'm standing at the bar with a Cuban cigar
(Guajira, Guantanamera) Hey, yo
I think she's eyein' me from afar
(Guantanamera, guajira, guantanamera)
Soy una mujer sincera (Do you speak English?)
De donde crecen las palmas
(Can I buy you a drink?)
Soy una mujer sincera
De donde crecen las palmas (You killin' me)
Y antes de morir, yo quiero
Cantar mis versos del alma
(Te quiero, mama, te quiero)
(Guantanamera) Hey, yo
I'm standing at the bar with a Cuban cigar
(Guajira, Guantanamera) Hey, yo, John Forté
She's eyein' me from far
(Guantanamera, guajira, guantanamera)
Yo, she was a rose
In Spanish Harlem, mamacita, beg your pardon
Make stakes at a faster
Rate than she fornicates (In Spanish Harlem)
Pure trait's of genius
Goddess of Black Venus
Crab niggas angry 'cause they
Can't get between us
To no selección, smooth complexion
The lexicon of Lexington
Parents came from Cuba
Part Mexican, pure sweet
Dons fell to her feet
She like Movado and shook
Her hips like Delgado
And broke niggas down from
The Grounds to Apollo
And then some, she took her act
Sent it to dim sum
And waited patiently while
The businessmen come call late on purpose
Got even politicians nervous
And made plans to infiltrate
The street Secret Service
This gentle flower, fertility was her power
Sweet persona, Venus flytrap prima donna
Que será
Que será she turned dinero to dinera
(Guantanamera) Hey, yo
I'm standing at the bar with a Cuban cigar
(Guajira, Guantanamera) Hey, yo
I think she's eyein' me from afar
(Guantanamera, guajira, guantanamera)
Miami to the NYC to New Jersey, Jersey
