And there's nowhere I'd rather be
When they take with the one hand and take with the other
On the day all the hands go free
And the sun's gonna shine
The suns gonna shine on me
O-lo-e-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
And all the people go
O-lo-e-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
Mama Maria she would take my hand
Down to el Rio sol
Saying oye for real hijo understand
Hands can hurt or heal so
Tell all the people go
O-lo-e-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
And all the people go
O-lo-e-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
And all the people go
O-lo-e-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
And all the people go
O-lo-e-o
Free hands go
Mama Maria she would take my hand
Down to the Rio and flow
Baxabana ogxam baxabana ngenoxoxo
Bexakwe yinuxba xaka
Tell all the people go
O-lo-e-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
All the people go
O-lo-e-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
Tell all the people go
O-lo-e-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
And all the people go
O-lo-e-o
Free hands go
And there's nowhere I'd rather be
Gonna raise up the one hand and raise up the other
Hurt me outside inside I'm free
And there's no enemy
Everyone is my brother
When the truth comes to set me free
And we're not going to fall in and out with each other
On the day all the hands go free
Then the sun's gonna shine
And the sun's gonna shine on me
Tell all the people go
O-lo-e-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
And all the people go
O-lo-e-o-lo
Free hands go
Lo-lo-lo-lo
E-Lo
And the sun's gonna shine on me
And I know one day I know
The sun's gonna shine on me
Let my hands go free
Let my hands go free
Let my hands go free
The sun's gonna shine on me
Let my hands go free
And all hands go free
And all hands go free
The sun's gonna shine on me
