Lyrics

Yo soy el andariego, pues qué le voy a hacer
No más porque me gusta tener nuevo querer
La vida la he pasado no más aquí y allá
No pienso componerme, yo quiero ir más allá
Me vine de Chicago, llegué hasta Tennessee
Ahí una ojos azules se enamoró de mí
Le dejé un recuerdito y de pintada me fui
Llegué hasta California, con lana y maletín
Pa pronto una morena, chicana como yo
Sin saber ni quién era, de mí se enamoró
Del carro que traía, la llave me la dio
Y cuando estaba dormida, no le dije ni adiós
Así me la he pasado, haciendo todo igual
No más porque de plano, no quiero trabajar
Ya anduve todo el mundo, México y Nueva York
Y sigo de andariego, adivinen dónde estoy
Pa pronto una morena…
Así me la he pasado…

Lyrics translation

I am the wanderer, so what am I going to do to him
No more because I like to have new love
Life I've spent no more here and there
I'm not going to make up, I want to go further
I came from Chicago, I came all the way to Tennessee.
There a blue eyes fell in love with me
I left him a little memory and I went away
I made it all the way to California, with wool and a briefcase.
Pa soon a brunette, chicana like me
Without even knowing who he was, he fell in love with me
From the car he was carrying, he gave me the key.
And when I was asleep, I didn't even say goodbye
That's how I've had it, doing everything the same
No more because flat out, I don't want to work
I've been all over the World, Mexico and New York.
And I keep wandering, guess where I am
PA soon a brunette…
That's how I had it.…
