Lyrics

Spanish Harlem! Boogie Down Bronx Manhattan! Back to Staten! Guantanamera Hey yo I'm standing at the bar with a, Cuban cigar Guajira, Guantanamera Hey, yo, I think she's eyeing me from afar Guantanamera Guajira Guantanamera Yo, I wrote this in Haiti, overlooking 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 eyeing 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, I think she's eyeing me from afar Guantanamera Guajira Guantanamera Yo, she was a rose in Spanish Harlem, mamacita beg your pardon Make stakes at a faster rate then she fornicates Pure traits of genius, Goddess of Black Venus Crab niggaz angry cause they can't get between us To no sele-xion, smooth complex-ion The lexicon of Lexington, parents came from Cuba Part Mexican, pure sweet, dimes fell to her feet She like Movado, and sher hips like Delgado And broke niggaz 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 primadonna Que sera que sera 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 eyeing me from afar Guantanamera Guajira Guantanamera
