Lyrics
brinda con el pensamiento
gotita lluvia de calor
mi culpa dobigi
es por mi culpa senor
bebi de tu memoria
aroma, tierra, agave y sol
yo soy la que le gusta
este castigo mejor
gota gota gota gotita de mezcal
gota gota gota gotita de mezcal
gota gota gota gotita de mezcal
gota gota gota gotita de mezcal
dicen que tomando pierdes
la cabeza y el dinero
dicen que tomando pierdes
la cabeza y el dinero
pero a mi me crece el pecho
con ese mezcal del bueno
pero a mi me crece el pecho
con ese mezcal del bueno
como toca la barrica
de su cielo de Oaxaca
como toca la barrica
de su cielo de Oaxaca
como pita el mezcalito
gusanito de tu boca
como pita el mezcalito
gusanito de tu boca
cantaba lloro, tanto mezcal
tanto llorar, tanto tomar
cantaba lloro, tanto mezcal
tanto llorar, tanto tomar
de pechuga mezcalito
mezcalito de maguey
pa' todo mal mezcalito
para todo bien tambien
de pechuga mezcalito
mezcalito de maguey
pa' todo mal mezcalito
para todo bien tambien
la penca de ese maguey
su espina me esta matando
la penca de ese maguey
su espina me esta matando
acercate chaparrita
que esta lumbre esta quemando
acercate chaparrita
que este lumbre esta quemando
barrica del palo santo
del gusano de esparin
barrica del palo santo
del gusano de esparin
son anejas tus gotitas
del sabor que yo vivi
son anejas tus gotitas
del sabor que yo vivi
cantaba lloro, tanto mezcal
tanto llorar, tanto tomar
cantaba lloro, tanto mezcal
tanto llorar, tanto tomar
de pechuga mezcalito
mezcalito de maguey
pa' todo mal mezcalito
para todo bien tambien
de pechuga mezcalito
mezcalito del maguey
pa' todo mal mezcalito
para todo bien tambien
cantaba lloro, tanto mezcal
tanto llorar, tanto tomar
cantaba lloro, tanto mezcal
tanto llorar, tanto tomar
cantaba lloro, tanto mezcal
tanto llorar, tanto tomar
cantaba lloro, tanto mezcal
tanto llorar, tanto tomar
gota gota gota gotita de mezcal
gota gota gota gotita de mezcal
gota gota gota gotita de mezcal
gota gota gota gotita de mezcal
gota gota gota gotita de mezcal
gota gota gota gotita de mezcal

Lyrics translation
toast with thought
droplet heat rain
my fault dobigi
it's my fault, sir.
I drank from your memory
aroma, Earth, agave and sun
I'm the one she likes.
this punishment better
drop drop drop droplet of mezcal
drop drop drop droplet of mezcal
drop drop drop droplet of mezcal
drop drop drop droplet of mezcal
they say taking you lose
the head and the money
they say taking you lose
the head and the money
but my chest grows
with that good mezcal
but my chest grows
with that good mezcal
how it touches the barrel
from your Oaxaca Sky
how it touches the barrel
from your Oaxaca Sky
as pita el mezcalito
little worm in your mouth
as pita el mezcalito
little worm in your mouth
I sang crying, both mezcal
so much crying, so much taking
I sang crying, both mezcal
so much crying, so much taking
of Mezcalito breast
maguey mezcalito
pa ' all evil mezcalito
for all good too
of Mezcalito breast
maguey mezcalito
pa ' all evil mezcalito
for all good too
that maguey's pen
his Thorn is killing me.
that maguey's pen
his Thorn is killing me.
come close chaparrita
that this light is burning
come close chaparrita
that this light is burning
Palo santo barrel
of the Sparin worm
Palo santo barrel
of the Sparin worm
are attached your droplets
the taste I lived
are attached your droplets
the taste I lived
I sang crying, both mezcal
so much crying, so much taking
I sang crying, both mezcal
so much crying, so much taking
of Mezcalito breast
maguey mezcalito
pa ' all evil mezcalito
for all good too
of Mezcalito breast
mezcalito del maguey
pa ' all evil mezcalito
for all good too
I sang crying, both mezcal
so much crying, so much taking
I sang crying, both mezcal
so much crying, so much taking
I sang crying, both mezcal
so much crying, so much taking
I sang crying, both mezcal
so much crying, so much taking
drop drop drop droplet of mezcal
drop drop drop droplet of mezcal
drop drop drop droplet of mezcal
drop drop drop droplet of mezcal
drop drop drop droplet of mezcal
