Singing in the Car

A few weeks ago I made a resolution to dance more.  Something I did as a 10-year-old that made me happy, I resolved to try to start dancing around the house again.  I've been doing pretty well.  I dance at home and even sometimes at work.  But some days there just isn't enough time.  I wake up too late or run around too much.  On days like that I try to make sure I sing in the car.  While I don't find it quite as fun because I know what a horrible singer I am, it does help a little.  My life theme song as of late has been "Waka Waka (This Time For Africa)" by Shakira.  I love the lyrics and the beat.  It helps motivate me to stay positive and happy.  It also gets stuck in my head so that when times get rough at work (just as an example), it's there to move me along.  Take a listen!  It's either going to make you smile or drive you crazy... which might make me smile!






You're a good soldier

Choosing your battles
Pick yourself up
And dust yourself off
And back in the saddle

You're on the frontline
Everyone's watching
You know it's serious
We're getting closer
This isnt over

The pressure's on
You feel it
But you've got it all
Believe it

When you fall get up
Oh oh...
And if you fall get up
Ay ay...

Tsamina mina
Zangalewa
Cause this is Africa

Tsamina mina eh eh
Waka Waka eh eh

Tsamina mina zangalewa
Anawa aa
This time for Africa

Listen to your god
This is our motto
Your time to shine
Dont wait in line
Y vamos por Todo

People are raising
Their expectations
Go on and feed them
This is your moment
No hesitations

Today's your day
I feel it
You paved the way
Believe it

If you get down
Get up Oh oh...
When you get down
Get up eh eh...

Tsamina mina zangalewa
Anawa aa
This time for Africa

Tsamina mina eh eh
Waka Waka eh eh

Tsamina mina zangalewa
Anawa aa

Tsamina mina eh eh
Waka Waka eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa
