Mom told me life isn't easy
But it's easier with a big smile
So I smile when life hurts
Because Mom said there's always somebody worse off
She told me give without expecting thanks
Live your life like endless youth
Always reach out to the poorest
Before being important be a man and useful
She also told me that here everything's fragile
If everything falls you rebuild, that's life
Yeah like an indelible pain
We live with this melancholy, that's life
Dance, dance, to life to love
Dance, dance, to life to love
Dance, dance, to life to love
Mom told me to never forget
Where I came from but above all who I was
We had little but we knew how to give
She always said 'At home hospitality's inborn'
Be who you are, don't let yourself get colored
Many died for that freedom
Don't dirty everything we sweated for
But above all don't let them walk on you
Mom told me the world's cracked
Change it with your humanity
Yeah give the world to your other half
Give your whole life to loving them
Dance, dance, to life to love
Dance, dance, to life to love
Dance, dance, to life to love
Mom gives better advice than the night
Mama gives better advice than the night
I said Mama gives better advice than the night
Mama gives better advice than the night
Mama gives better advice than the night
I said Mama gives better advice than the night
Dance, dance, to life to love
Dance, dance, to life to love
Dance, dance, to life to love
Dance, dance, to life to love
