Lyrics of La Rica Pobre - ANTONIO AGUILAR

La Rica Pobre (original)

Como millonaria presumes ahora
Esa es la noticia de toda la gente
Que ya no te acuerdas cuando te ponias
Esas enawotas de 4 por 20
Ahora ya te pones ropa americana que
Ni las rodillas te tapan
Que ya no te acuerdas en tu triste rancho
Las nawas de rancho de manta que al suelo arrastraban
Eres rica pobre que sueña despierta
Entraste de criada y te sientes patrona
El dia que te corran por tus malas mañas
Seras lo que fuites ranchera pajona
Ahora traes collares y pulseras de oro
Y ya traes luciendo lindas arracadas
Debias de acordarte lo que tu eras antes
Que ni las orejas traias lavadas
Ahora ya presumes de mucho peinado
Las uñas pintadas los ojos tisnados
Andas presumiendo lo que tu no tienes
Y tus hermanitos ya casi encuerados
Eres rica pobre que sueña despierta
Entraste de criada y te sientes patrona
El dia que te corran por tus malas mañas
Seras lo que fuites ranchera pajona

(translation)

As a millionaire you presume now
That's the news of all the people
That you no longer remember when you wore
Those enawotas of 4 by 20
Now you wear American clothes that
Not even your knees cover you
That you no longer remember in your sad ranch
The blanket ranch nawas that dragged to the ground
You are rich, poor, daydreaming
You came in as a maid and you feel like a boss
The day they kick you out for your bad habits
You will be what you were ranchera pajona
Now you wear gold necklaces and bracelets
And you already wear pretty earrings
You should have remembered what you were before
That not even your ears were washed
Now you show off a lot of hairstyle
The painted nails, the stained eyes
You are showing off what you don't have
And your little brothers already almost naked
You are rich, poor, daydreaming
You came in as a maid and you feel like a boss
The day they kick you out for your bad habits
You will be what you were ranchera pajona
