Lyrics
Si yo fuera Maradona
Viviría como él
Si yo fuera Maradona
Frente a cualquier portería
Si yo fuera Maradona
Nunca m’equivocaría
Si yo fuera Maradona
Perdido en cualquier lugar
La vida es una tómbola…
De noche y de día…
La vida es una tómbola
Y arriba y arriba…
Si yo fuera Maradona
Viviría con él
Mil cohetes, mil amigos
Y lo que venga a mil por cien…
Si yo fuera Maradona
Saldría en mondovision
Para gritarle a la FIFA
¡Que ellos son el gran ladrón!
Si yo fuera Maradona
Viviría como él
Porque el mundo es una bola
Que se vive a flor de piel
Si yo fuera Maradona
Frente a cualquier porquería
Nunca me equivocaría…
Si yo fuera Maradona
Y un partido que ganar
Si yo fuera Maradona
Perdido en cualquier lugar…
Lyrics translation
If I were Maradona
I'd live like him
If I were Maradona
In front of any goal
If I were Maradona
I'd never make a mistake.
If I were Maradona
Lost anywhere
Life is a tombola…
Night and day…
Life is a tombola
And up and up…
If I were Maradona
I'd live with him.
A thousand rockets, a thousand friends
And what comes to a thousand percent…
If I were Maradona
It would be on mondovision.
To shout at FIFA
That they are the great thief!
If I were Maradona
I'd live like him
Because the world is a ball
That you live to the bone
If I were Maradona
In front of any crap
I would never be wrong…
If I were Maradona
And a match to win
If I were Maradona
Lost anywhere…
