Lyrics of La Mesera - Los Tigres Del Norte

La Mesera (original)

En una fonda chiquita
Que parecía restaurante
Me fui a comer unos tacos
Por que ya me andaba de hambre
Ya ven que hambre es canija
Pero más el que la aguante
Se me arrimo una morena
Que estaba reque-tres piedras
Me dijo que se le ofrece
Puede pedir lo que quiera
Señor estoy pa' servirle
Aquí yo soy la mesera
Cuando mire aquella joven
Se me olvidaron lo tacos
Le dije traiga cerveza
De pollo sirva dos platos
Y usted se sienta conmigo
Pa' divertirnos un rato
Le pregunte eres casada
Y me dijo no vivo sola
Pero antes de que le sigas
Hecha a tocar la pianola
Nomás' le pones un peso
Por que esa no toca sola
No se ni cuantas tomamos
Yo y mi amiga la mesera
El caso es que hasta
Bailamos a punto de borrachera
Bailamos la cucaracha
Y creo que hasta la rielera
Ya cuando se hizo de noche
Le dije a que hora nos vamos
Me dijo no chiquitito
En eso si no quedamos
Pero si traes dinerito
Hasta una polka bailamos

(translation)

In a small inn
that looked like a restaurant
I went to eat some tacos
Because I was already hungry
You see how hungry is little
But more the one who endures
I was approached by a brunette
That was required-three stones
He told me that she offers him
She can ask what he wants
Lord, I'm here to serve you
Here I am the waitress
When I look at that young woman
I forgot the tacos
I told him bring beer
Serve two plates of chicken
and you sit with me
To have fun for a while
I asked her are you married
And she told me I don't live alone
But before you follow him
Made to play the pianola
You just put a weight on it
because that doesn't play alone
I don't even know how many we took
Me and my friend the waitress
The thing is that even
We dance to the point of drunkenness
We dance the cockroach
And I think even the rielera
Already when it was night
I told him what time we're leaving
She told me no little one
In that if we don't stay
But if you bring little money
We even danced a polka
