Lyrics
Dónde está mi negra bailando
Con las sayas de tundiki, cantando
Con las sayas de tundiki, bailando
Dónde se ha metido mi negra
Cargada de su guagüita, bailando
Cargada de su guagüita, bailando
Negra, samba, aunque tunante
Siempre adelante
Negra, samba, aunque tunante
Siempre adelante
Hay un lorito con su monito
Hay un lorito con su monito
Es un regalo de San Benito
Para la fiesta de los negritos
Hay un lorito con su monito
Hay un lorito con su monito
Es un regalo de San Benito
Para la fiesta de los negritos
Un viejo caña con su caballo
Un viejo caña con su caballo
Están durmiendo en su cabaña
Están durmiendo en su cabaña
Un viejo caña con su caballo
Un viejo caña con su caballo
Están durmiendo en su cabaña
Están durmiendo en su cabaña
Ya nos vamos, ya nos vamos cantando, (Ya nos vamos, ya nos vamos bailando)
Con las sayas de tundiki cantando
Con las sayas de tundiki bailando
Con las sayas de tundiki cantando
Con las sayas de tundiki bailando
Negra, samba, aunque tunante
Siempre adelante
Negra, samba, aunque tunante
Siempre adelante
(Ciao!)
Lyrics translation
Where's my nigga dancing
With tundiki's sayas, singing
With tundiki's sayas, dancing
Where's my nigga gone?
Loaded with his little guaguita, dancing
Loaded with his little guaguita, dancing
Black, samba, though tunant
Always forward
Black, samba, though tunant
Always forward
There's a parrot with his monkey
There's a parrot with his monkey
It's a gift from Saint Benedict.
For the party of the negritos
There's a parrot with his monkey
There's a parrot with his monkey
It's a gift from Saint Benedict.
For the party of the negritos
An old cane with his horse
An old cane with his horse
They're sleeping in their cabin.
They're sleeping in their cabin.
An old cane with his horse
An old cane with his horse
They're sleeping in their cabin.
They're sleeping in their cabin.
We're going, we're going singing, (We're going, we're going dancing)
With tundiki's sayas singing
With tundiki's Sayas dancing
With tundiki's sayas singing
With tundiki's Sayas dancing
Black, samba, though tunant
Always forward
Black, samba, though tunant
Always forward
(Hello!)
