[00:05.90] Ladies and gents
[00:07.88] Turn up your sound systems
[00:09.27] To the sound of Carlos Santana
[00:12.82] And the G&B, it's The Product
[00:15.23] Ghetto blues from the Refugee Camp
[00:17.62] Oh, Maria, Maria
[00:22.91] She remind me of a West Side story
[00:27.39] Growin' up in Spanish Harlem
[00:32.22] She livin' a life just like a movie star
[00:36.53] Oh, Maria, Maria
[00:42.37] She fell in love in East L.A.
[00:47.35] To the sounds of the guitar, yeah, yeah
[00:52.42] Played by Carlos Santana
[00:55.84]
[01:03.12] Stop the lootin', stop the shootin'
[01:05.78] Pick-pockin' on the corner
[01:07.99] See as the rich is getting richer
[01:10.60] The poor is getting poorer
[01:12.93] Se mira Maria on the corner
[01:15.26] Thinkin' of ways to make it better
[01:17.66] In my mailbox there's an eviction letter
[01:20.89] Signed by the judge said, "See you later"
[01:23.42] Yeah

[02:16.30] I said a la favella, los colores
[02:19.38] The streets are getting hotter
[02:21.69] There is no water to put out the fire
[02:24.11] Ni gota de esperanza
[02:26.48] Se mira Maria on the corner
[02:28.90] Thinkin' of ways to make it better
[02:31.35] Then I looked up in the sky
[02:33.74] Hopin' the days of paradise

[02:57.53] Maria, you know you're my lover
[03:01.88] When the wind blows, I can feel you
[03:05.56] Through the weather and even when we are apart
[03:12.02] It still feels like we're together
