Ladies and gents, turn up your sound systems to the sound of Carlos Santana and the G&B, it's The Product of get-away blues from the refugee camp Maria, Maria She remind me of a West Side story Growing up in Spanish Harlem She living a life just like a movie star 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 Signed by the judge, said, "See you later."
