Life is Worth It

When I came to Palenquito I saw life in a hole
I dedicated myself with my children to extract sand from the stream
Hey, my friend, life is worth it
Take the shovel in hand, let's extract the sand
Cesar Jiménez already lowered the water level
Let's extract the sand to earn for the rice
Ami Martínez, life is worth it
Take the shovel in hand, let's extract the sand
José Mendoza already lowered the water level
Let's extract the sand to earn for the rice

When the stream rises, it's something I regret
Oh, my companions say it's another day I lose

Hey Oswalcito, life is worth it
Take the shovel, let's extract the sand
Oh Gabrielito, the water level has dropped
Let's extract the sand to earn for the rice
Oh Toño Flores, life is worth it
Take the shovel, let's extract the sand
Pedro la Cruz, the water level has dropped
Let's extract the sand to earn for the rice

Let's go, companions of the stream, damn it!

We take a little trip, we have a day won
We earn for the cassava, for the meat and the fish

Listen to me Gloria, life is worth it
Take the shovel, let's extract the sand
Listen to me Tami, the water level has dropped
Let's extract the sand to earn for the rice
Julio Vallares, life is worth it
Take the shovel, let's extract the sand
Oh Luis Ramírez, the water level has dropped
Let's extract the sand to earn for the rice

In the Palenquito neighborhood, we are all companions
And we live from the stream, we are the sand extractors

Listen to me Enrique, life is worth it
Take the shovel, let's extract the sand
Let's go my children, the water level has dropped
Let's extract the sand to earn for the rice
Listen to me Librada, life is worth it
Take the shovel, let's extract the sand

Continue my children because life is beautiful
Keep extracting the sand, that doesn't harm us
Continue my children because life is beautiful
Keep extracting the sand, that doesn't harm us

Let's go my children, the water level has dropped
Let's extract the sand to earn for the rice
Let's go my children, the water level has dropped
Let's extract the sand to earn for the rice

Oh Petronita, the sand is going to kill me
My waist hurts, I can't walk
Oh Petronita, the sand is going to kill me
My waist hurts, I can't walk
Oh Petronita, the sand is going to kill me
My waist hurts, I can't walk
Oh Petronita, the sand is going to kill me
My waist hurts, I can't walk
Oh Petronita, the sand is going to kill me
My waist hurts, I can't walk
Oh Petronita, the sand is going to kill me
My waist hurts, I can't walk
Oh Petronita, the sand is going to kill me
My waist hurts, I can't walk
Oh Petronita, the sand is going to kill me
