Lyrics
Aún vive el burro que acarreaba la vinagre
No se lo llevó Dios aún de esta vida miserable
Acarreando
Acarreando
Acarreando
Vida miserable
Vinagre
Igual de mohíno y menos valiente
Con una pensión de tres al cuarto
Y así como ausente
Acarreando
Acarreando
Acarreando
Vida miserable
Vinagre
Ya no es el orgullo de nadie en Villarino
Ya no lo visita ni siquiera su único sobrino
Acarreando
Acarreando
Acarreando
Vida miserable
Vinagre
Aún mira las fotos de su álbum de viudo
Casi no recuerda cómo era aquel cuerpo desnudo
Acarreando
Acarreando
Acarreando
Vida miserable
Vinagre
Sólo en su cabeza de noche y de día
Aún chirría el carro, el carro, el carro aún chirría
Acarreando
Acarreando
Acarreando
Vida miserable
Vinagre
Lyrics translation
The donkey carrying the vinegar still lives
God didn't take him away yet from this miserable life
Carrying
Carrying
Carrying
Miserable life
Vinegar
Equal to Mohino and less brave
With a pension of three to a quarter
And as well as absent
Carrying
Carrying
Carrying
Miserable life
Vinegar
It is no longer the pride of anyone in Villarino
Even his only nephew no longer visits him
Carrying
Carrying
Carrying
Miserable life
Vinegar
Still looking at the photos from his widowed album
He hardly remembers what that naked body looked like
Carrying
Carrying
Carrying
Miserable life
Vinegar
Only in his head night and day
The cart still squeaks, the cart, the cart still squeaks
Carrying
Carrying
Carrying
Miserable life
Vinegar
