Translation of the song lyrics El Corrido De Tacha ("La Teibolera") - Lila Downs, Max Baca, Flaco Jimenez

El Corrido De Tacha ("La Teibolera") (original)

Llegó en la flecha roja esa muchacha
Con sus tacones negros de charol
Vidita mia Ay ay de mi morena
Cosa mas buena como Tacha no he visto yo
Catorce años tenia la Tacha en ese entonces
Cuando su madre la casaba con un señor
Como por chiquitita se la llevaban
En una noche a oscuras Tacha escapó
Cántame Tacha una rancherita
Porque el recuerdo me va a matar
Cántame Tacha de esas bonitas
De esas que a un hombre lo hacen llorar
Porque la noche es triste y Tacha era sola
Tuvo que hacer su lucha de bar en bar
Con su boquita pintada de teibolera
En la cantina en una mesa subió a cantar
Esos ojitos y esos labios son mi desvelo
Por más que quiero olvidar no puedo más
Por unas copas y esas canciones tristes
La teibolera Tacha me fue a embrujar

El Corrido De Tacha ("La Teibolera") (translation)

That girl arrived at the red arrow
With her black patent leather heels
Vidita mia Oh oh my brunette
I have not seen a better thing like Tacha
I was fourteen years old at that time
When her mother married her to a man
As a little girl they took her
On a dark night Tacha escaped
Sing to me Cross out a rancherita
Because the memory is going to kill me
Sing to me Tacha of those pretty
Of those that make a man cry
Because the night is sad and Tacha was alone
She had to do her fight from bar to bar
With her little mouth painted as a teibolera
In the canteen at a table she went up to sing
Those little eyes and those lips are my concern
As much as I want to forget, I can't anymore
For a few drinks and those sad songs
The teibolera Tacha went to bewitch me
