Lyrics
Mi mama, mi taita
Cuidado con la criatura
Inga, inga
Mi mama ambiciosa me dijo
Que tope la raya guaraco
Desde ayer
Estos zancuditos
Que me están picando
Sangre de las venas, mamita
Que me están sacando
Mi amito se ha ido pa’l campo
Y me deja mi amita cuidando
Desde ayer
Cuando el amo sepa
Lo que está pasando
Va a hacer con el cuero, negrito
Zapatito blando
Lyrics translation
My mother, my noodle
Beware of the creature
Inga, inga
My ambitious mom told me
Let the guaraco line hit
Since yesterday
These waders
That they're itching me
Blood from the veins, mamita
That they're taking me out
My friend's gone to the field.
And leave me my amita taking care of
Since yesterday
When the master knows
What's happening
He's gonna do with the leather, nigga.
Soft shoe
