La Negra Tiene Tumbao(original) |
| Esa negrita que va caminando |
| esa negrita tiene su tumbao |
| y cuando la gente la va mirando |
| ella baila de lao, va bien apretao |
| La negra tiene tumbao |
| y no camina de lao |
| Si quieres llegar derecho |
| mejor camina de frente |
| para que no haya tropiezos |
| y vengan y te lamentes |
| Si quieres llegar primero |
| mejor se corre despacio |
| disfruta bien de la vida |
| aunque tomando medidas |
| La negra tiene tumbao |
| y no camina de lao |
| Cuando la gente se muere |
| se dice que era tan buena |
| tan buena cuando vivía |
| como la noche y el día |
| Que a mí me vengan a decir la verdad |
| no aguanto ya más mentiras |
| disfruto bien de la vida |
| aunque tomando medidas |
| La negra tiene tumbao |
| y no camina de lao |
| Tiene tumbao |
| anda derechito no camina de lao |
| diosa de la noche, dulce como el melao |
| otra como ella yo nunca he encontrao |
| Ven aquí para poder compartir |
| porque eres tú la negra linda que me hace feliz |
| Otra no quiero |
| (eres tú la que me da inspiración) |
| sin ti me muero |
| (me hace falta aparte tu corazón) |
| Otra no quiero |
| (si no estás, siento desesperación) |
| sin ti me muero |
| (translation) |
| That black girl who is walking |
| that black girl has her tomb |
| and when people are looking at her |
| she dances lao, she goes very tight |
| The black woman has a tumbao |
| and she doesn't walk sideways |
| If you want to get straight |
| better walk forward |
| so that there are no stumbles |
| and come and be sorry |
| If you want to arrive first |
| you better cum slowly |
| enjoy life well |
| although taking measures |
| The black woman has a tumbao |
| and does not walk sideways |
| when people die |
| it is said that it was so good |
| so good when i was alive |
| Like night and day |
| That they come to tell me the truth |
| I can't stand any more lies |
| I enjoy life well |
| although taking measures |
| The black woman has a tumbao |
| and does not walk sideways |
| she has a grave |
| walk straight don't walk lao |
| goddess of the night, sweet as molasses |
| another like her I have never found |
| Come here to share |
| because you are the beautiful black woman that makes me happy |
| I don't want another |
| (it's you who gives me inspiration) |
| without You I die |
| (I need your heart apart) |
| I don't want another |
| (if you are not, I feel despair) |
| without You I die |
