A poesia latina de Santana

You've got to change your evil ways, baby,
before I stop lovin' you.
You've got to change, baby,
and every word that I say is true.
You got me runnin' and hidin' all over town,
you got me sneakin' and a-peepin' and runnin' you down.
This can't go on, Lord knows you got to change, baby.

When I come home, baby,
my house is dark and my pots are cold.
You're hangin' round, baby,
with Jean and Joan and-a who knows who.
I'm gettin' tried of waitin' and foolin' around,
I'll find somebody who won't make me feel like a clown.
This can't go on, Lord knows you got to change, baby.

I'll find somebody who won't make me feel like a clown.

BLACK MAGIC WOMAN
Peter Green

I got a Black Magic Woman.
I got a Black Magic Woman.
Yes, I got a Black Magic Woman,
She's got me so blind I can't see;
But she's a Black Magic Woman and
she's trying to make a devil out of me.

Don't turn your back on me, baby.
Don't turn your back on me, baby.
Yes, don't turn your back on me, baby,
Don't mess around with your tricks;
Don't turn your back on me, baby,
'cause you might just wake up my magic sticks.

You got your spell on me, baby.
You got your spell on me, baby.
Yes, you got your spell on me, baby,
Turnin' my heart into stone;
I need you so bad,
Magic Woman I can't leave you alone.

GYPSY WOMAN
(Curtis Mayfield)

From out of nowhere through a caravan
around the campfire light
came a lovely woman in motion with hair as dark as night.
Her eyes were like those of a cat in the dark
and she hypnotized me with love.

She was a gypsy woman
She was a gypsy woman
She was a gypsy woman
She was a gypsy woman.

She danced around and 'round to a guitar melody.
From the fire her face was all aglow,
how she enchanted me.
How I'd love to hold her near
and kiss and forever whisper in her ear.

I love you gypsy woman
I need you gypsy woman
I want you gypsy woman
just got to have a gypsy woman.

All through the caravan
she was dancing with all the men
waiting for the rising sun,
everyone was having fun.
I hate to see the lady go knowing she'll never know
that I love her, I love her.

I love you gypsy woman
I need you gypsy woman
I want you gypsy woman
just got to have a gypsy woman

VERA CRUZ
Santana, Rollie, Thompson, Cohen, Miles

Come on, baby don´t you wanna go ?
Way down south, talkin´´bout Mexico
Straight through the jungle, out to the sea
We´ll have some fun if you fly away with me
Like some old movie, in black and white
We´ll fall in love in the middle of the night

Me and you, down in Vera Cruz
Do what you wanna do, down in Vera Cruz

Come on, baby don´t you gonna come ?
In the town, people movin´to the drums
Rosa´s Cantina, it never stops
Drinkin´ cerveza, people psrty ´till they drop
Forget the laundry, forget the rain
We´ll get to the heaven on the seven-thirty plane

Me and you, down in Vera Cruz
Do what you wanna do, down in Vera Cruz
Me and you, down in Vera Cruz
Do what you wanna do, down in Vera Cruz

NO ONE TO DEPEND ON
(M. Carabello - C. Escovedo)

Ain't got nobody that I can depend on
Ain't got nobody that I can depend on
Ain't got nobody that I can depend on

Ain't got no one tengo anadie
That I know of no tengo anadie
That I can depend on no tengo anadie
Ain't got no one

Got nobody
That I can depend on no tengo anadie
Ain't got nobody that I can depend on
No tengo anadie.

PUT YOUR LIGHTS ON
(E. Schrody)

Hey now, all you sinners
Put your lights on, put your lights on
Hey now, all you lovers
Put your lights on, put your lights on

Hey now, all you killers
Put your lights on, put your lights on
Hey now, all you children
Leave your lights on, you better leave your lights on
Because there’s a monster living under my bed
Whispering in my ear
There's an angel, with a hand on my head
She say I’ve got nothing to fear

There’s a darkness deep in my soul
I still got a purpose to serve
So let your light shine, into my home
God, don’t let me lose my nerve
Lose my nerve

Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now
Wo oh hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now

Hey now, all you sinners
Put your lights on, put your lights on
Hey now, all you children
Leave your lights on, you better leave your lights on

Because there’s a monster living under my bed
Whispering in my ear
There's an angel, with a hand on my head
She say I’ve got nothing to fear
She say, whooo-ahha hey la la, you shine like stars
Whooo-aohaha hey la la, you shine like stars
And you feel your way

LOVE OF MY LIFE
(C. Santana & D. Matthews)

Where you are that's where I wanna be
And through your eyes,
all the things I wanna see
And in the night,
you are my dream
You're everything to me

You're the love of my life
and the breath in my prayers
Take my hand, lead me there
what I need is you here

I can't forget when we are one
From your lips, the Heavens pour out
I can't forget when we are one
With you alone. I am free

Everyday, every night, you alone
you're the love of my life.
Everyday, every night, you alone
you're the love of my life.

We go dancing in the moonlight
with the starlight in your eyes
we go dancing till the sunrise
You and me we're gonna dance,
dance, dance.

Dance, sister, dance.
I love the way you move, I love to watch you.

LET THE CHILDREN PLAY
(Carlos Santana & Leon Patillo)

Let the children have their way,
let the children play,

Ellos tienen que jugar,

WINNING
(Russ Ballard)

One day I was on the ground
When I needed a hand
Then it couldn't be found
I was so far down that I couldn't get up
You know and one day I was one of life's losers
Even my friends were my accusers
In my head I lost before I begun

I had a dream but it turned to dust
And what I thought was love
That must have been lust
I was living in style
When the walls fell in
And when I played my hand
I looked like a joker
Turn around fate must have woke her
Cause lady luck she was waiting outside the door

I'm winning
I'm winning
I'm winning
I'm winning and I don't intend on losing again

Too bad it belonged to me
It was the wrong time and not meant to be
It took a long time and I'm new born now
I can see the day that I bleed for
If it's agreed that there's a need
To play the game and to win again.

CORAZON ESPINADO
(F. Olvera)

Esa mujer me esta matando
Me a espinado el corazon
Por mas que trato de olvidarla

Mi alma no da razon
Mi corazon aplastado
Herido y abandonado
Aber aber tu sabes dime mi amor por favor
Que dolor nos quedo

Chorus: Ah ah ah corazon espinado
Ah ah ah como me duele el amor

Como duele como duele el corazon
Cuando nostiene entregados
Pero no olvides mujer que algun dia diras
Hay ya yay como me duele el amor

Como me duele el olvido
Como duele el corazon
Como me duele estar vivo
Sin tenerte aun lado amor

Corazon espinado

SMOOTH
(Itaal Shur & Rob Thomas)

Man it's a hot one
Like seven inches from de midday sun
I hear your whisper and the words melt everyone
But you stay so cool
My Muñequita, my Spanish Harlem
Mona Lisa
You're my reason for reason
The step in my groove

And if you said this life ain't good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
Cause you're so smooth

And it's like the ocean under the moon
Well that's the same as teh emotion that I get from you
You get the kind of lovin' that could be so smooth
Give your heart, make it real
or else forget about it

Well I'll tell you one thing
If you would leave it be a crying shame
In every breath and every word
I hear your name calling me out
Out of the barrio,
You hear me rhythm on your radio
You feel the turning of the world so soft and slow
Turning round and round

HOLD ON
(Ian Thomas)

Don't rush me just this once
I want to make this moment last
Slow down the pace, there's no hurry
I can't let another pass me by again
Let me be the one to say when I've had enough

Just let me close my eyes, memorize
The way things are this minute
So when you're gone I can go on
If memory can hold on within it what I'm feeling
Should time try fading or stealing something away

CHORUS:
Hold on, nothing's the same
Tell me why I feel this way
Life wouldn't be worth living without you
All along I've been the pretender
But now that's gone forever
Nobody's ever loved me like you do
Nobody's broken through

Got to concentrate, file away
Every last detail
Don't want to lose what's going down
I want to remember everything I'm feeling
Should time try fading or stealing something away

Repeat Chorus 3 times
