Salud y Vida (original)

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

West Side
Daddy Yankee
Pa’l viejo oeste, you know
Come on, man (Come on)
Que Dios te multiplique lo que me deseas
Yo tengo la salud pa' enfrentar la mala marea
Donde tengo los pies mucho me quieren ver la cabeza
En esta selva de cemento hay fiera por naturaleza
Pero, al gran caballo grandes espuelas
No le tengo miedo a los grandes problemas
Menos por dinero, si honradamente me lo gano yo
Prefiero ser dueño de un peso que ser esclavo de dos, you know
Es que se venden, entiende
Que hasta los ojos marrones cuando lo ven cambian a verde
Favor con favor se paga (Eso es así)
Si en estos tiempo que vivimos ni el agua sale de gratis
Dar pa' recibir no es dar, sino pedir
Buscando tu beneficio podrías encontrar el fin
Estaré pidiendo mucho con un poco de lealtad
No me hablen de confianza, acaso se olvidaron que-
Un santo era San Pedro, oh, oh, oh
Y negó a su maestro, yeh-eh-eah
Un santo era San Pedro, oh, oh, oh
Y negó a su maestro, yeh-eh-eah
Con dinero o sin dinero, siempre yo hago lo que quiero
Vivo por mi propia ley, sin corona soy un rey
Con el pan necesario que hicieron yo doy gratitud
¿De qué me vale ser un millonario y no tener salud?
(Ajá)
¿De qué te vale trabajar como un animal
Y cuando te levantes es en la sala de un hospital?
¿De qué te vale ser cruel?
Dime
Si tú eres el mismo Diablo yo seré tu San Miguel
Cuántos habladores no se callan cuando su boca abren
Con la lengua nadaran en un charco de sangre
No pongas en tela de juicio la hombría de nadie
Porque, ¿a quién le gusta quedar como un cobarde?
Pero si quieres la victoria, los ignorarás
Perdiendo a veces en la vida uno gana más
Uno a uno ellos caerán, y después te llamarán
Tú sabio perdonarás, desconfiando al igual porque-
Un santo era San Pedro, oh, oh, oh
Y negó a su maestro, yeh-eh-eah
Un santo era San Pedro, oh, oh, oh
Y negó a su maestro, yeh-eh-eah
Bienaventurado el que aborrece la envidia pues va a tener (Salud y vida)
Sembrando el odio en mi alma tampoco yo encontraré (Salud y vida)
Por eso es que a mis enemigos yo vivo deseándoles (Salud y vida)
No te afanes en matarme mi hermano, deséame (Salud y vida)
Nazareno te doy gracias porque tú me dejas tener (Salud y vida)
El tesoro más preciado es caminar siempre lleno de (Salud y vida)
Las piedras en mi camino se alegraran si fuera a perder (Salud y vida)
Un santo era San Pedro, oh, oh, oh
Y negó a su maestro, yeh-eh-eah
Un santo era San Pedro, oh, oh, oh
Y negó a su maestro, yeh-eh-eah

Westside
daddy yankee
For the old west, you know
Come on, man (Come on)
May God multiply what you wish for me
I have the health to face the bad tide
Where I have my feet a lot they want to see my head
In this cement jungle there is a beast by nature
But, to the big horse big spurs
I'm not afraid of big problems
Less for money, if honestly I earn it
I prefer to be the owner of one peso than to be the slave of two, you know
It is that they are sold, understand
That even brown eyes turn green when they see it
Favor with favor is paid (That's how it is)
If in these times that we live not even the water comes out for free
Giving to receive is not giving, but asking
Looking for your benefit you could find the end
I'll be asking a lot with a little loyalty
Don't talk to me about trust, perhaps they forgot that-
A saint was Saint Peter, oh, oh, oh
And he denied his teacher from him, yeh-eh-eah
A saint was Saint Peter, oh, oh, oh
And he denied his teacher from him, yeh-eh-eah
With money or without money, I always do what I want
I live by my own law, without a crown I am a king
With the necessary bread that they made, I give gratitude
What is the point of being a millionaire and not having health?
(AHA)
What's the use of working like an animal
And when you wake up is it in a hospital room?
What's the use of being cruel?
Tell me
If you are the same Devil I will be your Saint Michael
How many talkers don't shut up when their mouths open
With the tongue they will swim in a pool of blood
Do not question the manhood of anyone
Because who likes to look like a coward?
But if you want the victory, you will ignore them
Losing sometimes in life one wins more
One by one they will fall, and then they will call you
You wise will forgive, distrusting the same because-
A saint was Saint Peter, oh, oh, oh
And he denied his teacher from him, yeh-eh-eah
A saint was Saint Peter, oh, oh, oh
And he denied his teacher from him, yeh-eh-eah
Blessed is he who hates envy because he will have (Health and life)
Sowing hatred in my soul I will not find either (Health and life)
That is why I live wishing my enemies (Health and life)
Don't worry about killing me my brother, wish me (Health and life)
Nazarene I thank you because you let me have (Health and life)
The most precious treasure is to walk always full of (Health and life)
The stones in my path will rejoice if I were to lose (Health and life)
A saint was Saint Peter, oh, oh, oh
And he denied his teacher from him, yeh-eh-eah
A saint was Saint Peter, oh, oh, oh
And he denied his teacher from him, yeh-eh-eah
