Lagrimas de Oro
Manu Chao Lyrics
Tú no tienes la culpa mi amor
Que el mundo sea tan feo
Tú no tienes la culpa mi amo
De tanto tiroteo
Vas por la calle llorando
Lágrimas de oro
Vas por la calle brotando
Lágrimas de oro
Tú no tienes la culpa mi amor
Tú no tienes la culpa mi amor
Vámonos de jaleo
Ahí por la calle llorando
Lágrimas de oro
Ahí por la calle brotando
Lágrimas de oro
Llegó el cancodrilo y Super Chango
Y toda la vaina de Maracaibo
En este mundo hay mucha confusión
Suenan los tambores de la rebelión
Suena mi pueblo suena la razón
Suena el guaguancon
Tú no tienes la culpa mi amor
Lágrimas de oro

Manu Chao (born José-Manuel Thomas Arthur Chao on 21 June 1961 in Paris, France) is a singer of French and Spanish (Basque, Galician) origin.
Heavily influenced by the UK rock scene, particularly The Clash, The Jam and Dr. Feelgood, Chao and other musicians formed the Spanish/English rockabilly group Hot Pants in the mid-1980s. The group released a demo entitled "Mala Vida" in 1984, which received plenty of local critical praise but otherwise gained them little attention. By the time the group released their first album in 1986 the Parisian alternative music scene had taken flight, and Manu, his brother Antoine Chao, and friends such as Alain from Les Wampas formed Los Carayos to incorporate this sound with the rockabilly and punk styles of Hot Pants. Los Carayos remained a side project of the artists for eight years, releasing three albums in the first two years followed by a final album in 1994.
Manu Chao had been a well-known member of the Parisian alternative music scene, in bands such as Hot Pants and Los Carayos. In 1987, Chao, his brother Antoine Chao and their cousin Santiago Casariego founded the band Mano Negra, which met with success in France first with the hit single Mala Vida and then Mexico, Central and South America, where the band toured. The band split in 1995.
Chao sings in French, Spanish, Arabic, Galician, Portuguese, English, Italian, and Wolof, sometimes mixing them in the same song. He is one of the world's largest selling artists, but is less known in the English-speaking world.
Chao's music has many influences: rock, French chanson, Spanish-American Salsa, Reggae, Ska and Algerian rai. These influences were obtained from immigrants in France, his Iberian roots and his travels in Latin America following the disbanding of Mano Negra. Many of Chao's lyrics are about political issues (e.g., immigration, global social justice, conflict, and a strongly leftist critique of exploitative economic globalization) but they are also about love, lifestyles in different parts of the world, and music itself, which is hopeful for the future and at the same time dramatic. Chao is openly critical of the Bush administration in the US. He has many followers among the European left and the anti-globalization movement.
The influence of Manu Chao in Latin Rock or "Rock en Español" was crucial not only for the development and rise of new Latin bands that tried to emulate his eclectic style, but also for the self-knowledge of Latin America as a united culture. After the Latin America tour and travels, Manu Chao lyrics were more often written in Spanish than were the Mano Negra lyrics. His songs also took the lyrics or chords of some popular tunes like "El preso" from "Fruko y Sus Tesos" (in "Desaparecido") or "La Verdolaga" a traditional Colombian cumbia (in "Por el Suelo").
Manu Chao's music does not follow a logical textual narrative, but in its eclectic construction it invokes a deeper understanding of its subject than any literal form could. He sings songs about the people of the streets, the outer provinces, and the marginalised; he sings with the forgotten and uncounted billions, the underclass, and in so doing, he speaks about the fragility of human kind. His music is a bridge, exploring the common ground and means of mutual understanding that are available to us, exponating the idea that beyond superfluous differences in cultural identity, we are all the same.

Tú no tienes la culpa mi amor
Que el mundo sea tan feo
Tú no tienes la culpa mi amo
De tanto tiroteo
Vas por la calle llorando
Lágrimas de oro
Vas por la calle brotando
Lágrimas de oro
Tú no tienes la culpa mi amor
De tanto cachondeo
Tú no tienes la culpa mi amor
Vámonos de jaleo
Ahí por la calle llorando
Lágrimas de oro
Ahí por la calle brotando
Lágrimas de oro
Llegó el cancodrilo y Super Chango
Y toda la vaina de Maracaibo
En este mundo hay mucha confusión
Suenan los tambores de la rebelión
Suena mi pueblo suena la razón
Suena el guaguancon
Tú no tienes la culpa mi amor
Lágrimas de oro

Lágrimas de Ouro🇧🇷
Tu não tens culpa meu amor
que o mundo seja tão feio
Tu não tens culpa meu amor
de tanto tiroteio
Vais pelas ruas chorando
Lagrimas de ouro
Vais pelas ruas brotando
Lágrimas de ouro
Tu não tens culpa meu amor
De tanta brincadeira
Tu não tens culpa meu amor
Vamos na desordem
Aí pelas ruas chorando
Lagrimas de ouro
Aí pelas ruas brotando
Lagrimas de ouro
Chegou o crocodilo e Super Xangô
E todas as coisas de Maracaibo
Neste mundo há muita confusão
Soam os tambores da rebelião
Soa meu povo, soa a razão
Soa o guaguancó
Tu não tens culpa meu amor
Lágrimas de ouro

It's not your fault my love
that the world is so ugly
it's not your fault my love
of all that shooting
You walk down the street crying
tears of gold
you walk down the street dropping
tears of gold
It's not your fault my love
of all this troubles*
it's not your fault my love
let's go from fuss
There on the street crying
tears of gold
there on the street dropping
tears of gold
The crocododile and the super kid have come
and all that trash from Maracaibo**
In this world there's so much confusion
sound the rebellion drums
Sound my people, sounds the reason
sounds the guaguanco***
dance my mum
sound the rebellion drums
Sound my people, sounds the reason
tears of gold
Sound my people, sounds the reason
sounds the guaguanco
It's not your fault my love
tears of gold...

Felicidad me dá ver estos comentarios y saber que dos grandes como vosotros tenéis influencias como estas inculcadas por vuestros padres.
Todavía recuerdo y puedo sentir los viajes en el coche con mi padre, que sin saber porqué me ponía estos pedazos de discos; hoy en día le doy las gracias por la realidad y forma de pensar que me mostró a través de todas estas canciones.
Un saludo, sois unos grandes.
