Debajo de aquel árbol hay una raíz
y esa raíz tu no puedes tumbar
Espérate a que algún día el tiempo
la deje en tu camino, para poderla usar
Los viejos decian
ahí va el sonido de la tambora
retumba como la tierra
El alegre al repicar
imitando la tierra tronar
Pedrito lanzó su golpe
para el cuero sonar
Mientras hablan los ancestros
historias que vienen y van
El teme por sus raíces
pellizcándole el alma
noche de luna llena
la cintura de una morena
bailando sobre la playa
Despierta en su memoria
fuego ron y parranda
Los viejos decían
ahí va el sonido de las maracas
Brilla silbante como el mar
y una voz profunda grita
imitando la tierra tronar
Los pitos y el viento son
y el negro con su mano saca con ellos
el calor pa llevarte a ti, mi hermano
Escúchalo el ritmo que viene feroz
Por ahí va
Tin-tin-tin-tiango kitingo matapangolla
y esta matica tu no puedes tumbar
sea marihuana un pino o ciguaralla
y a mi no me da igual
ay todas juntas me las vas a pagar
- Respect
Theres two kinds of persons in these world
the one who show his hands
and the one who hides his lands
Theres no more words to say
until you dont finish your killing green plane
I dont wanna hear no more tears from
mama nature and papa believe
Speciali dedicator a Pedrito Alcázar y los Sacerdotes del tambor.
