Translation of the song lyrics Juanito Alimana - Héctor Lavoé, Willie Colón

Juanito Alimana (original)

La calle es una selva de cemento
Y de fieras salvajes, cómo no
Ya no hay quien salga loco de contento
Donde quiera te espera lo peor
Donde quiera te espera lo peor
Juanito Alimaña con mucha maña llega al mostrador
Saca su cuchillo sin preocupación
Dice que le entreguen la registradora
Saca las billetes, saca un pistolón.
¡Pum!
Sale como el viento
En su disparada
Y aunque ya lo vieron
Nadie ha visto nada
Juanito Alimaña pa' la fechoria
Se toma su caña
Fabrica su orgia
La gente le teme
Por que es de cuidado
Pa' meterle mano
Hay que ser un bravo
Si lo meten preso
Sale al otro dia
Porque un primo suyo
'ta en la policia
Juanito Alimaña
Si tiene maña es malicia viva
Y siempre se alinea
Con el que esta arriba
Y aunque a medio mundo
Le robó su plata
Todos lo comentan
Nadie lo delata
Y aunque a todo el mundo
Le robó la plata
Todos lo comentan
Nadie lo delata…
A la la ley ley ley ley
En su mundo
Mujeres, fumada, y caña
Atracando
Vive Juanito Alimaña
Cuando él era muchachito
Las cositas que pedia…
Y si tu no se las daba, las mangaba
Como quiera la cogia
En su mundo
Mujeres, fumada, y caña
Atracando
Vive Juanito Alimaña
Ese… ese tumba lo que ve
Si lo ve mal puesto
Anda cuida tu cartera
Ese si que sabe de eso
En su mundo
Mujeres, fumada, y caña (atracando)
Atracando (atracando)
Vive Juanito Alimaña
Si el otro dia lo encontré
Y guilla’o, él me decia
Tumba aqui lo que tu quieras
Pues mi primo es policia
En su mundo
Mujeres, fumada, y caña (ese es)
Atracando (ese es)
Vive Juanito Alimaña
Oye… como alma que lleva el diablo
Se tira su disparada
Y aunque la gente lo vieron
No lo ratean porque nadie ha visto nada
En su mundo
Mujeres, fumada, y caña
Atracando
Vive Juanito Alimaña
El rey de las fechorias
Ayer me dijo Facundo
Todo el mundo lo conoce
Óyeme, en el bajo mundo
En su mundo
Mujeres, fumada, y caña
Atracando
Vive Juanito Alimaña
Mira mira le las manos
En ellas no tiene un callito
Ese nunca ha trabajado
Y siempre anda bien bonito
En su mundo
Mujeres, fumada, y caña
Atracando
Vive Juanito Alimaña
Oye, ayer él iba muy triste
Y llorando asi bajaba
Vengo de un velorio, brother
El de Pedrito Navajas
En su mundo
Mujeres, fumada, y caña
Atracando
Vive Juanito Alimaña
Mira, la gente le teme al tipo
Porque el hombre es de cuidado
Diganme a quién en el barrio
Los chavos él no le ha tumbado
En su mundo
Mujeres, fumada, y caña
Atracando
Vive Juanito Alimaña

Juanito Alimana (translation)

The street is a concrete jungle
And of wild beasts, of course
There is no longer anyone who goes crazy with happiness
Wherever the worst awaits you
Wherever the worst awaits you
Juanito Alimaña with great skill arrives at the counter
She draws her knife without concern
She says to give her the register
She takes out the bills, takes out a pistol.
Boom!
It goes out like the wind
in his shot
And although they already saw it
no one has seen anything
Juanito Vermin for the misdeed
He takes his cane
make your orgy
people fear him
Why is he careful?
Pa' put hand
You have to be brave
If they put him in jail
He leaves the next day
because a cousin of his
'ta in the police
Juanito vermin
If he has skill, it's living malice
And he always lines up
with which he is above
And although half the world
He stole her money
everyone comments on it
no one gives it away
And although everyone
He stole the money
everyone comments on it
No one betrays him...
To the law law law law
In your world
Women, smoked, and cane
docking
Live Juanito Alimaña
when he was a little boy
The little things he asked for...
And if you didn't give it to him, he took it
as you want the fuck
In your world
Women, smoked, and cane
docking
Live Juanito Alimaña
That… that knocks down what he sees
If he sees it wrong
Go take care of your wallet
That if he knows about it
In your world
Women, smoked, and cane (barging)
docking (docking)
Live Juanito Alimaña
If the other day I found it
And guilla'o, he told me
Grave here what you want
Well, my cousin is a policeman
In your world
Women, smoked, and cane (that's it)
docking (that's it)
Live Juanito Alimaña
Hey… like a soul that the devil carries
He shoots his shot
And although the people saw it
They don't rate it because no one has seen anything
In your world
Women, smoked, and cane
docking
Live Juanito Alimaña
The king of misdeeds
Yesterday Facundo told me
everyone knows him
Hear me, in the underworld
In your world
Women, smoked, and cane
docking
Live Juanito Alimaña
Look look at his hands
In them he does not have a callito
that has never worked
And he always walks very pretty
In your world
Women, smoked, and cane
docking
Live Juanito Alimaña
Hey, yesterday he was very sad
And crying like that he went down
I come from a wake, brother
The one with Pedrito Navajas
In your world
Women, smoked, and cane
docking
Live Juanito Alimaña
Look, people are afraid of the guy
Because the man is careful
Tell me who in the neighborhood
The guys he has not knocked him down
In your world
Women, smoked, and cane
docking
Live Juanito Alimaña
