Lyrics
Esta historia que les voy a relatar
Es de un hombre rico que tenía lo que quería
Mas ese hombre rico tenía una afición:
Eran las canicas que serían su perdición
Tenía muchas canicas de muchos colores;
Grandes, medianas, cayucos y balines
También tenía bolitas y ojos de gato
Y una que otra de barro para no discriminar
Un día en el que estaba jugando a las canicas
Ganó el partido y se puso muy contento
Tan contento estaba que las quiso probar
Un cayuco, un balín y una bolita agarró
Y se las tragó, sí, y se tapó, y se murió
Y todo por comer canicas
Si también a ti te gustan las canicas
Y algún día tienes ganas de probarlas
Ve a la tienda de la esquina y compra muchos chicles
Chicles de bola y masca hasta cansarte
Pero nunca vayas a comer… canicas
Canicas, canicas, canicas
Canicas, canicas, canicas
No, no, no, no comas canicas
No, no, no pues te puedes tapar
No, no, no luego no me platicas
No, no, no hay te vas a quedar
Yo te suplico querido amigo, amiga
Hermana, nunca vayas a comer canicas
No, no, no
Lyrics translation
This story I'm going to tell you
It's from a rich man who had what he wanted
But that rich man had a hobby:
It was the marbles that would be his perdition
He had many marbles of many colors;
Large, medium, cayucos and balines
He also had little balls and cat eyes
And one that another of mud not to discriminate
One day I was playing marbles
He won the match and was very happy
He was so happy that he wanted to try them
A cayuco, a Balin and a ball grabbed
And he swallowed them, yes, and covered himself, and died
And all for eating marbles
If you like marbles too
And someday you want to try them
Go to the corner store and buy lots of gum
Ball gum and chew until you get tired
But never go eat ... marbles
Marbles, marbles, marbles
Marbles, marbles, marbles
No, no, no, don't eat marbles.
No, no, no, you can cover up.
No, no, no. then don't talk to me.
No, no, there's no. you're gonna stay.
I beg you dear friend, friend
Sister, never go eat marbles
No, no, no
