| Que Pasa Mi Cuate (original) | Que Pasa Mi Cuate (translation) |
|---|---|
| Que pasa, mi cuate | What's up, my friend? |
| Porque pues te afliges | because then you grieve |
| Mujeres hay muchas | women there are many |
| Pa que padecer | Why suffer |
| Que sirvan las copas | serve the drinks |
| Y tu no te fijes | And you don't notice |
| En los malos ratos | in the bad times |
| Que deja el querer | What leaves the want |
| Tantito se gana | Little bit is earned |
| Tantito se pierde | little bit is lost |
| Pero que caramba | but what the hell |
| No es para llorar | It's not for crying |
| Me plantan ahora | plant me now |
| Pero esta muy verde | but it is very green |
| Que a luego me vuelvan | That they come back to me later |
| De nuevo a plantar | back to planting |
| Mi esperanza esta perdida | my hope is lost |
| Y llevo la herida abierta | And I have an open wound |
| Para que quiero la vida | Why do I want life? |
| Si el alma la tengo muerta | If my soul is dead |
| Si no soy feliz ni modo | If I'm not happy, no way |
| Hay que aguantar la parada | You have to hold the stop |
| Me viene muy ancho todo | Everything is too wide for me |
| Porque no me importa nada | Because I don't care about anything |
| De veras mi cuate | really my buddy |
| Mi amor es profundo | my love is deep |
| Y como no puedo | And since I can't |
| Lograr su querer | achieve your want |
| Me importa un comino | I don't give a damn |
| La vida y el gusto | life and taste |
| Que sirvan las otras | Let the others serve |
| Yo quiero beber | I want to drink |
| Yo soy testarudo | I am stubborn |
| Me muero en la raya | I die on the line |
| Pero hoy yo no ruego | But today I don't beg |
| Como los demás | Like the rest |
| Si quiere la ingrata | If you want the ungrateful |
| Pos ya que se vaya | Well, let it go |
| Que importa uno menos | What does one less matter? |
| Que importa uno mas | What does one more matter? |
| Mi esperanza esta perdida | my hope is lost |
| Y llevo la herida abierta | And I have an open wound |
| Para que quiero la vida | Why do I want life? |
| Si el alma la tengo muerta | If my soul is dead |
| Si no soy feliz ni modo | If I'm not happy, no way |
| Hay que aguantar la parada | You have to hold the stop |
| Me viene muy ancho todo | Everything is too wide for me |
| Porque no me importa nada | Because I don't care about anything |
