Lyrics of La Rumbera - Joe Arroyo, La Verdad

La Rumbera (original)

Donde estaba Maria Inez
Recojiendo maracucha
Y ahora dime con quien
Con el hijo de Marucha
Mira muchacha loca dejate de ase esas cosas
Parece que no sigueras consejos de los viejos
De experiencia
Precisa ment ayer andabas con tu novio pa'
Arregla el asunto ese del presunto matrimonio que
Ya tiene en esperemo
Por que se a dado cuenta que tiene amorio con control
De la radio un locutor un futbolista
Y el cantante de esta orquesta
Si sigue del timbo al tambo como un fandango bailando
Mambo con el sobrino de rafael
Vera que no era mentira lo que decian las malas
Que predecian lo que te podria suceder
Ay ponle cuido maria inez
Para Que puedas aprender
Ay no no no no no Maria Inez esta rumba tuya pa’onde quiera y qu
Se puda repercudir
Aun que cambies de cartera y te cmpres ropa nueva
Siempre seras la rumbera

(translation)

Where was Maria Inez
picking passion fruit
And now tell me with whom
With Marucha's son
Look, crazy girl, stop doing those things
It seems you don't follow advice from the old
From experience
Precise ment yesterday you were with your boyfriend pa'
Fix that matter of the alleged marriage that
You already have in hope
Because she has realized that she has an affair with control
From the radio an announcer a soccer player
And the singer of this orchestra
If he follows from the timbo to the tambo like a fandango dancing
Mambo with Rafael's nephew
You will see that it was not a lie what the bad ones said
They predicted what could happen to you
Ay, take care of her, Maria Inez
So that you can learn
Oh no no no no Maria Inez this rumba of yours wherever you want and what
It could have an impact
Even if you change your handbag and buy new clothes
You will always be the rumbera
