Que Vas a Hacer (vidala-guaracha)

From the ranch to the edge of the road
His fateful destiny cannot be twisted
Governments promise, promise
The help doesn't arrive, what are you going to do?
For a long time the river water
Is contaminated, how can it be?
There are no longer catfish, bream, or golden fish
The meat that rises will have to be eaten
The meat that rises will have to be eaten

Culture is in the hands of big shots
What a great panorama, how can it be?
The highest ones don't have access
And keep going, what are you going to do?
There are no smiles, children work
On the cold side, girls too
Thieves and police, the great trilogy
With the judge's approval
With the judge's approval

There is no Marcos, Evo, or Chavez
There is no Dr. Juarez this time
What are we waiting for, for Robi Santucho to give us a sign
It can't be anymore

Let's denounce because there are malnourished
The newspapers tell us what else we have to see
That the leaves eat the forests
We have little left, what are you going to do?
What are you going to do?

Waiting for Che Guevara to return
Or maybe a Fidel to govern us
Or perhaps a European to believe in paper mills
And turn shit into honey

Or maybe from the luminary
They take the gold and everything else
We hope Braden resurrects
And all the Yankees take power
They take power

The landowner politicians all
The same as always, it doesn't matter to them
Remember Pascual Angulo's story
They fuck you up and the other way around

Whoever has the cow, the money, the meat, the land
Doesn't want to give in
We hope the scum continues
Their hands in poverty, what are you going to do?
What are you going to do?

Or we start fighting and battling
Like in the 70s, to die or to win
For a long time the river water
Doesn't reach the neck, what are you going to do?

We fix it with the common sense
Of the people, it couldn't be better
Everything may carry the current
Of the sweet or the Uruguay River
And nothing, 30 years don't help
30 thousand souls cut off as well
Everything continues, and I wonder (3)
What are you going to do? (3)
