Latino

Every day he repeated the same thing: I want to go to New York
I'm tired of underdevelopment, I want to live something better
So one day he decided to go north
Despite everyone telling him 'you're crazy'
You're not prepared for a world like that
There won't be a place for someone like you
What's up! I'm Latino
I'm not from New York, I only speak Spanish
I'm Latino, I'm also a human being Yes!
Hey, hey, hey, hey I'm also American
Someone please give me a hand
I'll take any job
Come on baby show me what you can do...
Nothing important, I'll sign up for anything...
Do you have your papers or I'll send you away...
And the first job with all rights reserved.
I'm Latino, I'm not from New York, I only speak Spanish
I'm Latino, I'm also a human being Yes!
So a few years went by
Just clean it up from top to bottom
It was what he did for a pittance
And he lost a few pounds
He had to get married for the visa
And with the woman he lost what little he had
And one of those nights walking along the tracks
Just like that, the police took him away
I'm Latino, I'm not from New York, I only speak Spanish
I'm Latino, I'm also a human being Yes!
I'm Latino, I'm not from New York, I only speak Spanish
I'm Latino, here's my green card
Don't accuse me of being illegal
I'm Latino, I'm not from New York, I only speak Spanish
I'm Latino, I'm also a human being Yes!
I'm Latino, I'm not from New York...
