Lyrics

POBRE CHANGUITA
No te hagas la loca
Ni la interesante
Ni me presumas de lo que
Tu nunca haz sido
Pobre changuita cuatro meses
Te he tenido
Bien vestida y bien polveada
Con naguas de pura seda
Y zapatos de charol
Y já jái hasta me rio
Y me carcájeo
Y ja jai por esta changa
Tan ma’lora
Y ahora si hasta el bocado
Se me atora
De pensar en lo que cuesta
Los vestidos y las medias
Y zapatos de charol
-changuita, mira no’mas-
Hoy ya no quieres ir al cine
De a peseta
Pues porque dices que alli
Va gente pelada
Pobre changuita ahora
Si estas amolada
No te acuerdas precodina
Resfregabas la cocina siendo
Gata del patrón
Y já jái hasta me rio
Y me carcajeo
Y ja jai por esta changa
Tan ma’lora
Y ahora si hasta el bocado
Se me atora
De pensar en lo que cuesta
Los vestidos y las medias
Y zapatos de charol

Lyrics translation

POOR CHANGUITA
Don't be crazy.
Nor the interesting
Don't even brag about what
You've never been
Poor changuita four months
I've had you
Well dressed and well sprinkled
With Pure Silk naguas
And patent leather shoes
And I already laughed
And I die
And Ha ha ha for this changa
Tan Ma'lora
And now if even the bite
If you tie me up
To think about what it costs
Dresses and stockings
And patent leather shoes
- changuita, look no ' more-
Today you don't want to go to the movies anymore
From peseta
Because you say there
Go naked people
Poor changuita now
If you're bruised
You don't remember precodine
You were scrubbing the kitchen being
Pattern cat
And I already laughed
And I laugh
And Ha ha ha for this changa
Tan Ma'lora
And now if even the bite
If you tie me up
To think about what it costs
Dresses and stockings
And patent leather shoes
