Zapatero a Tus Zapatos
Los Tucanes de Tijuana
Shoemaker, Stick to Your Shoes
I got caught by the law
Cause I was working crooked
They took me to jail
And I spent a few years locked up
I promised not to traffic
And to live a straight life
Days after I got out
I got some money
Built a little cart
And became a taxi driver
Had clients galore
Felt like a restaurateur
Health inspectors came down on me
Like 20 of them
Tried to bribe some
With tacos and speeches
But more kept coming down
And they shut down my operations
I didn't give up
And asked for permits again
But they didn't give them to me
Not even out of stubbornness
I got tired of going back and forth
Until I ran out of money
I couldn't work anymore
Felt desperate
People I had borrowed from
Started demanding payment
My family homeless
And me penniless
Couldn't handle the pressure
And went back to my old ways
The government forced me
Cause they didn't want to help me
Now they have a problem
Cause I'm a trip by journey
We can't change anymore
Why pretend we're ducks
We didn't want to study
Gotta do this job
As the saying goes
Shoemaker, stick to your shoes...
