Heard it all beforeThe power is not with the poorSetting sun across their humble shoreI hear a mother start to call
She’s crying out
Ooo doo do do doo
Do do da da ahhh
Ooo doo do do doo
Do do da da ahhh
War is never wonAnother evil loads another gunWe follow blindly with them one by oneAnd call it duty as we go
How many have to fall?Close the borders, build another wallThe problem lies inside us allI hear another start to call
They’re crying outOoo do dooooOoo do do do aaaahOoo do dooooDo do do do aaaah

Que nadie se pierda la rumba
Ole la bongo
de?jame vivir mi vida
ole la bongo
vacila la vida
hoy me voy derecho
aunque el sol me queme la cara
hoy me voy derecho
hasta las 6 de la man?ana
hoy me voy derecho
pa?same el ron
pa bajarme las ganas
hoy me voy derecho
que no me esperen en la casa
Ole la bongo
de?jame vivir mi vida
ole la bongo
vacila la vida
ole la bongo
de?jame seguirla
ole la bongo
que es para vivirla

No one should miss the rumba
Ole la bongo
let me live my life
ole la bongo
life is shaky
I'm going straight today
even if the sun burns my face
I'm going straight today
until 6 a.m.
I'm going straight today
pass me the rum
to get me down
I'm going straight today
Do not wait for me at home
Ole la bongo
let me live my life
ole la bongo
life is shaking
ole la bongo
let me follow it
ole la bongo
That it is meant to be lived
