Me Dijeron
Yolandita Monge
They Told Me
They told me...that you're someone who doesn't deserve my
friendship, that you're a
lost cause, lacking morals, and that I shouldn't write
this song if I want to maintain a good
reputation......
They told me...that you're one of those who are always around
Condado and Vendig
Street, and that I should be careful, so they don't think
I'm just like them, that I shouldn't risk
my manhood for
our friendship....
And I told them...what the hell do they all know about your
life, why don't they
judge the evil in their minds, instead of
hating you because you're different...
And today I ask them...what sin are you accused of? And I
resent you, for not
being more honest with me and having to
find out through others...
They told me...that they saw you in a place where there are
only men,
lack of principles...if your Mom finds out...you don't know
that she already knows, how could she not know if she was
the one who raised you...
And she told me...that you have been the best and healthiest
of her children...
that she respects you and you will always be hers...
that you have always been the reason for her pride...
And today I ask them...what sin are you accused of? And I
resent you, for not
being more honest with me and having to
find out through others...
And now I tell you...that between you and me nothing changes,
I am your friend...
that to me you are not just anyone, you are the same...
that the meaning of being a man is not machismo...
And I repeat...that what they have said has been an offense to me.
Give me a hug without fear of others not understanding...
that you are my buddy
and today the drinks are on me...
