La Chabola

The Shack

La Chabola

One dayEstando un día
In my shackEn mi chabola
The policeLa pestañi
Came for meVino a por mí
Because I stolePorque chore
For my childrenPara mis niños
Who I had without foodQue los tenía sin comer
And they took meY me llevaron
And they took meY me llevaron
And left them alone or abandonedY que solitos los quede o deje

And seeing the children they were taking meY al ver los niños que me llevaban
They started to crySe echaron a llorar
And the youngestY el más pequeño
Says to daddyLe dice al papa
Oh daddy where are you goingHay papaito donde vas
While his momMientras su mama
While his momMientras su mama
Was having fun with the othersSe divertía con los demás

And look at me how I see myselfY mira yo como me veo
In this prison locked upEn esta carcel metio
Crying day and nightLlorando de noche y día
And not knowing about my childrenY sin saber de mis niños

And on the day of my freedomY el día de mi libertad
That I have to take revengeQue yo me tengo que vengar
For what you didQue lo que has hecho
With my childrenCon mis niños
That you have to pay forQue me lo tenés que pagar
