From the recording Salvador
Lyrics
I grew up in a house on a hill
Everybody on the block know the deal (always) In your business, give you distress
Wanna tell you that your man got a mistress
There's something that I never will forget (uh huh) There's something that I haven't found yet (well) It's the rhythm we was living
Blasting out of everybody's window
the bass go boom boom boom
I hear the trumpet start to blow
It's the same old tun tun
It's the same old calypso
They speaking Spanish blah blah blah
They got the drums and they got guitar
It's the same old bachata,
it's the same old salsa
And we gotta live it up
We got a lotta chutney beat
2am and its playing cross the street
It's the business, food delicious
I’ll be eating from one of those dishes
There's something that I never will forget (uh huh) There's something that I haven't found yet (well) It's the rhythm we was living
Blasting out of everybody's window
I hear the bass go boom boom boom
I hear the trumpet start to blow
It's the same old tun tun
It's the same old calypso
They speaking Spanish blah blah blah
They got the drums and they got guitar
Es la misma bachata
Es la misma salsa
And we gotta live it up
(i wanna live it up)
(i wanna live it up)
Throw your hands in the air one time
Throw your hands in the air one time
I wanna live it up I wanna live it up
I wanna live it up I wanna live it up
Round and round like a helicopter
Round and round like a helicopter
I wanna live it up I wanna live it up
I wanna live it up I wanna live it up
Make a Z! Zorro!
Make a Z! Zorro!
I wanna live it up I wanna live it up
I wanna live it up I wanna live it up
Clap it up! Clap it up!
Clap it up! Clap it up!
The bass go boom boom boom
I hear the trumpet start to blow
It's the same old tun tun
It's the same old calypso
They speaking Spanish blah blah blah
They got the drums and they got guitar
Es la misma bachata
Es la misma salsa
And we gotta live it up
