In El Barrio. Roses are picked from your abuelita's house And candy is in the candy flake paint job of your lowww ride and love.... It's in the back seat. In El Barrio Nobody gets pinched cuz everybody carries a nickle bag in their back pocket and the mocosito kids smile cuz hey, they have theirs. El Barrio. Doors get knocked on and you pray it's not the police telling you she's gotten run over. Halloween in El Barrio little kids wear their fathers' clothes and paint their faces with their mothers' make up and smile when a penny is thrown into their hollow bags and frown When they come home and see all the treats they've received son las frutas del fil. In El Barrio. All your relatives are outside your abuelita's house because they all can't fit inside. Tías y abuelitas cook up chismes and you all give thanks... Even though for the rest of tortillas, frijoles, y arroz gracias a Dios? El Barrio... The only thing kids will be unwrapping son los tamalitos de sus abuelitas and... In El Barrio? Man, it's just another day there's alot of drunk mother#@*s screaming and gun shots going off in the air So you know the new year ain't gonna bring NO change so Holidays... will always remain the same in El Barrio. ©1999 Chuy Quintero |
