Manu Chao "La vida tombola"- per Maradona
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBx1rIVCGoY
The video has been taken from the movie-documentary directed by Emiri Kusturica about the life of Diego Armando Maradona.
This part shows Manu Chao performing live on an Argentian street exclusively for the football legend.
If I were Maradona
I would live like him
If I were Maradona
in front of any goal stand
If I were Maradona
I would never make mistakes
If I were Maradona
lost anywhere
Life is a raffle
night and day
Life is a raffle
and go and go!
If I were Maradona
I would live with him
a thousand rockets, a thousand friends
and what will come a thousand times 100
If I were Maradona
If I were Maradona
I'd appear on Mondovison (world-broadcasting)
telling that they are the real thief
Life is a raffle
night and day
Life is a raffle
and go and go!
If I were Maradona
I would live like him
because the world is a ball
in which we live..
If I were Maradona
I'd never (always?) make mistakes
If I were Maradona
and a game to win
If I were Maradona
lost anywhere
Life is a raffle
night and day...
