Manos Arriba
by 
Alvin Youngblood Hart 
recording of 2000 
from 
Start With The Soul (Rykodisc or Hannibal 1449) 
Ain't gonna give you no line 
Just gonna take back what's mine 
First we start with the soul, yeah 
An' then uh, maybe your gold 
(Manos arriba, sucka!) 
(Manos arriba) 
You watch too much t.v. 
You identify me 
But I'm the one who done nothin' 
So stop your huffin' an' puffin' 
(Manos arriba sucka!) 
(Manos arriba) 
I heard it come on the squawk 
You watchin' me like a hawk 
I ain't got nothin' to sell, yeah 
So you can go straight to hell 
(Manos, manos, manos, manos arriba sucka!) 
You won't let me go in style 
You say I fit the profile 
It don't take long to discover 
That I'm the one takin' over 
(Manos arriba, sucka!)
