Make Your Choices Count - Lyrics

Corn or flour tortillas are greatThe choices we make decide our fateNo matter the size, no matter the amountMake your choices count, make your choices count

ChorusThere was no, no better treatNo, nothing could ever beatThe one night, that one night a weekThat our family went out to eatAnd the waiter would say

Red or green salsas are greatThe choices we make decide our fateNo matter the size, no matter the amountMake your choices count, make your choices countNo question, no doubt, make your choices count

Tamales, tortilla soup, enchiladas, tacos tooWhatever your choices, they count they doChoice count, so think them through

Harina o maiz tortillas con carne asada chile y limonGrande o chico todos sabrosonMake your choices count, make your choices count

Mild or hot, easy or notEach and every day there are choices to makeFrom the food we eat to the friends we keepHow we use our time and how we use our dimes

I’ll make my choices count
