Lolita standing on the corner
Such beauty in one so young
Her eyes stare only for a moment
With the sun's glare
She is gone
It's one world, one world to another
No warning of things to come
The splendour one side of the picture
Only one glimpse have to run
It's OK down in Puerto Rico
All the people say
Must come back here some day
It's OK down in Puerto Rico
Come what may there's always church on Sunday
It's midday
All the streets are quiet
People sleep through the hot day sun
With darkness atmosphere's appealing
The night holds promise of things to come
It's OK here in Puerto Rico
All the people sway
We slip into a new day
It's OK here in Puerto Rico
If there's a way we'll come back here some day
It's one bar then onto another
In the centre of old San Juan
Ten thousand people standing on the sidewalks
I drink with each and every one
It's OK here in Puerto Rico
All the people say you must come back here someday
It's OK here in Puerto Rico
Come what may there's always church on Sunday
It's OK here in Puerto Rico
As the people sway
We drink into a new day
It's OK here in Puerto Rico

LYRICS: D. Schoufs/D. Schoovaerts
Wake up Angelita, your mama just turned off the light
Manolo is already waiting by the old water-pipe
Her shoes in one hand she carefully walks down the stairs
Holding her breath 'cause there's danger and love in the air.
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
Your papa will beat him if he ever finds out
Begging the Virgin won't help when you hear Manolito shout,
Manolito shout
He's already standing under the starlit sky
You run to his arms and you laugh and you cry as he holds you tight
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
He says he'll be leaving you soon still you beg him to stay
But he wants to make it somewhere in the U.S.A.
And though he'll be far he promises he'll write every day
When time will be right, he'll come back and he'll take you away
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
Your papa don't like him, he says he's no good
He steals and he fights and he never behaves, like a young man should
Angelita she knows, he's not that bad inside
She takes the medal, she wears on a chain, and presses it into his palm.
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico

Ooooooooooohhhhh.. Puerto Rico

Toma
Chorus: Tony Sunshine
Pronto llegara
El dia de mi suerte
Te lo juro por mi gente
Te juro que un dia llegara
And we won't stop
We always knew we'd make it
Even though you player hated
We still made it to the top
[Big Punisher]
Puerto Rock Puro, not Menudo no I'm not the one
I'm studyin Judo, you don't know if I got a gun
It's Pun, from the X side of things, baguette inside my rings
Everything I want I gets, bada-BING
It's mine I Shyne like money that sound like Biggie
Fuck around my town, Boogie Down my city
Come around get pound, to the ground no pity
Watch the sound, fo'-pound twenty round milli'
Get smacked silly, for coming out your mug
I'm known for bouncin thugs from the Tunnel to the Salsa clubs
Don't matter, put the chrome to your bladder
Splatter your abs, have you pissin in a plastic bag
That's a drag now you abnormal
Don't make me go out to rumble,
And put some motherfuckin stabs on you
The night is young and I'm already fightin hidin my gun
Promoter buggin screamin, "Who the fuck invited Pun?"
Chorus
[Big Punisher]
From San Juan to Bayamon, I'm the Don Juan beside the Don
Live long, get your party on
Don't let the liquor fool you, cause I'll stick it to you
Somethin sharp to the heart, or somethin big to move you
The Desert or the shottie, whateva you the body
That chose to be the dumb nigga at the party
Too much Bacardi started speakin dumb
Then you tried to snuff Joe - must have been Puerto Rican rum
That's the hardcore, two years a sophomore
Takes years to earn a pair of Terror Squad balls
So get lost or take one, bones I break them
Pigs are bacon, so get fried if they come
You see that? I'm like G. Rap, 'Pac, Master P
All balled up with a twist of Marc Anthony
Recognize me I'm the one that's cockin the auto
Tony Sunshine please canten el coro
Chorus
[Tony]It ain't over
[Pun]I thought you ain't like the beat
[Tony]Te digo que no se ha acabao
[Tony Sunshine]
La tierra del Borinquen donde nacido yo
Aha aha aha aha..
Es un jardin florido de magico primor
Aha aha aha aha aha aha aha...
Un cielo siempre nitido, que sirve de dosel
Y dan arrullos placidos, las olas a sus pies
Chorus
[Frankie Cutlass sample]
A Puerto Rico..
A Puerto Rico..
A Puerto Rico..
A Puerto Rico..

Er erzählte von Puerto Rico
wo er zuhause war und ich hörte ihm zu
und die Flügel der Träume trugen mich fort
zur versteckten Lagune
wo er den Tag verbrachte ohne Hemd und ohne Schuh -
ich schloß nur meine Augen und war schon dort.
Er erzählte von Puerto Rico
von Meer und Sonne
von bunten Muscheln im Sand
und ich sah seine Augen leuchten dabei.
Niemand kann nur von Träumen leben und Puerto Rico ist weit -
aber die Sehnsucht die bleibt.
Puerto Rico - Karibische Lieder
Deine Sonne wird nie untergeh'n.
Puerto Rico - Karibische Freiheit
Puerto Rico - ich möchte dich seh'n.
Er erzählte von Puerto Rico
von seinen Freunden -
viele trieb es hinaus
denn die Insel im Licht ernährte sie nicht.
Er erzählte von seinem Vater und seiner Mutter
und der Armut zuhaus
und da liefen ihm Tränen über's Gesicht.
Doch er sprach auch vom Karneval und dem Tanz der Kinder
und den Feuern am Strand
ich war arm
sagte er
dafür war ich frei.
Niemand kann nur von Träumen leben und Puerto Rico ist weit -
aber die Sehnsucht die bleibt.

We all went to Puerto Rico
There was nothing to talk about
We packed up all our belongings
I can't bear to see you now with nothing to talk about
We all went to Puerto Rico
There was nothing to talk about
My mother, my father, my sisters and I
Had nothing to talk about

Puerto Rico
Puerto Rico quema
Tus hijos son llama
Tus hijas son flama
Tu cielo diadema
Y en su canto
Y en su canto llace
Un llanto mordido
Que solo y podrido
De una sombra nace
Y reverdece con jugo de ajonjolí
Con rocío de maví
Así soy yo
Juana Díaz fue testigo
Que ese llanto que hoy respira
Va por furia no es por ira
O solo pide un descanzo
Y algún día ser feliz
Y es así porque es así
De otra manera no se puede
Y si al final del todo todo muere
To’ esta bien
Pues al final
Muero por ti
Puerto Rico
Puerto Rico duele
Toda su llanura
Con tanta dulzura
Que al mundo se vende
Entre tanto
Y entre tanto me olvido
Que soy yo quien cae
Vencido y sin nadie
Arropado de frío
Y reverdece con jugo de ajonjolí
Con rocío de maví
Así soy yo
Juana Díaz fue testigo
Que ese llanto que hoy respira
Va por furia no es por ira
O solo pide un descanzo
Y algún día ser feliz
Y es así porque es así
De otra manera no se puede
Y si al final del todo todo muere
To’ esta bien
Pues al final
Muero por ti
(x2)
Digo que no puedo aplaudir
Porque me han cortado las manos
Y hasta los brazos
Y que no puedo llorar
Porque la sal se ha secado
Y las lágrimas no encuentran por donde salir
Y digo muchas cosas que creo creer
Y otras que invento al momento
Pero siempre es seguro
de que por la noche
El insomnio me lo estrujará
Todo en el sueño
Cuando las mujeres
Quieren a los hombres
Prenden cuatro velas
y se las ponen por los rincones
(x2)
