Vengo de tierra lejana
Con mi guitarra en la mano

Tengo notas de cariño
Para todos mis hermanos

Goza como gozo yo... amigo
Goza como gozo yo... amigo
Goza como gozo yo... amigo
Goza como goZo yo... amigo

Tengo notas de cariño
Para todos mis hermanos

Vengo de tierra lejana
Con mi guitarra en la mano

Goza como gozo yo... amigo
Goza como gozo yo... amigo
Goza como gozo yo... amigo
Goza como gozo yo... amigo

Al llegar a Puerto Rico... amigo
Me creia que era rico...
Y al cruzar por una sierra... bongó
Visité a Rio Piedra...

El día que yo me muera
Yo tengo que ir a la gloria
Porque quise mucho a novia
Entre a la puerta a una iglesia
Y yo me puse a rezar
Para consolar mis penas
Yo vi una linda morena

Goza como gozo yo... amigo
Goza como gozo yo... Armando

Carlos Augusto Alves Santana (born July 20, 1947 in Autlán de Navarro, Jalisco) is a Mexican and American musician who became famous in the late 1960s and early 1970s with his band, Santana, which pioneered a fusion of rock and Latin American music. Carlos prefers to only play and leave lead vocals to guest singers. The band’s sound featured his melodic, blues-based guitar lines set against Latin and African rhythms featuring percussion instruments such as timbales and congas not generally heard in rock music. He experienced a resurgence of popularity and critical acclaim in the late 1990s. In 2003 Rolling Stone magazine listed Santana at number 20 on their list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. He has won ten Grammy Awards and three Latin Grammy Awards.
