Jet Lyrics

Ho Maria Maria

She reminds me of a west side story

Growing up in Spanish Harlem

She's living the life just like a movie star



Ho Maria Maria

She fell in love in East L.A.

To the sounds of the guitar, yeah, yeah

Played by Carlos Santana



Stop the looting, stop the shooting

Pick pocking on the corner

See as the rich is getting richer

The poor is getting poorer



Se mira Maria on the corner

Thinking of ways to make it better

In my mailbox there's an eviction letter

Somebody just said see you later



Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola

Ahora vengo mama chola



Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola

Ahora vengo mama chola



I said a la favella los colores

The streets are getting hotter

There is no water to put out the fire

Mi canto la esperanza



Se mira Maria on the corner

Thinking of ways to make it better

Then I looked up in the sky

Hoping of days of paradise



Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola

Ahora vengo mama chola



Maria you know you're my lover

When the wind blows I can feel you

Through the weather and even when we're apart

It feels like we're together
