Santana - E Papa Re lyrics

The sun is slowly rising

The day is just beginning

Let me take you to a

Place you’ve never been to

Imagine that you’re walking

With me in the jungle

The natives they are dancing

And singing to a ritual

E papa re, e papa re...

The music’s getting to you

Your knees are feeling shaky

Your mind is getting dizzy

The spell is taking over

Suddenly you find yourself

Surrounded by these people

Ain’t no use to try and struggle

You know it would be useless

Out of nowhere comes their leader

Commanding all attention

He signals them to set you free

But to keep on singing

E papa re, e papa re...

All around below above

The magic’s flowing freely

Everybody’s soaked in sweat

Drenched by their own feelings

Incantations cry out loud

The fire keeps on burning

now you’re in a time and space

From where there’s no returning
