The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "La Cucaracha" by Louis Armstrong.

Lyrics

Una cosa me da risa
Pancho Villa sin camisa
Ya se van los carrancistas
Porque vienen los villistas.
La Cucaracha, la Cucaracha,
Ya no puede caminar
Porque no tienne, porque le falta
Marihuana que fumar.
Para sarapes, Saltillo
Chihuahua para soldados
Para mueres, Jalisco
Para amar, toditos lados.

Lyrics translation

One thing I laugh at
Pancho Villa without shirt
The carrancistas are gone.
Because the villagers are coming.
La Cucaracha, La Cucaracha,
He can't walk anymore.
Because it does not hold, because it lacks
Marijuana to smoke.
For sarapes, Saltillo
Chihuahua for soldiers
To die, Jalisco
To love, all sides.
