Píseň: Stand Up

Interpret:
Carlos Santana
Album:
Marathon
It's so easy to be affected
By the bad news all around
It's so hard to get adjusted
All those changes bring me down


But just the other day, my baby
Taught me real straight ahead
You won't get by unless you face it
Face it standing up


So I stood there, I was feeling
My emotions running wild
But you held my hand and told me
I'll be always by your side


No matter what we face together
We can make it through
Nothing can stand in front of truth, baby
So come on and take a stand, yeah


Stand up, stand up, stand up
Stand up and take a stand with me
Stand up, stand up, stand up, yeah
Stand up and take a stand


Don't be afraid, you're not alone, babe
Take a good look around
Every one shares your fears and sorrows
So come on and take a stand, yeah


Stand up, stand up, stand up
Stand up and take a stand with me
Stand up, stand up, stand up
Stand up and take a stand, oh


Get yourself together
Take the time to plan ahead
'Cause tomorrow's looking at you
So you better get it straight


No matter what we face together
We can make it through
Nothing can stand in front of truth, baby
So come on and take a stand, woah


Stand up, stand up, stand up
Stand up and take a stand with me
Stand up, stand up, stand up
Stand up and take a stand, woah


Stand up, stand up, stand up
Stand up and take a stand with me
Stand up, stand up, stand up
Stand up and take a stand, oh
