My Grandmother's Sewing Machine

La Maquina De Mi Abuela

My grandmother had a machineMi abuela tenia una maquina
That didn't sew like an old oneQue no cosía de vieja
She sewed without a needleElla cosía sin aguja
(And with half the baking tray)(Y con media la asadera)

You won't believe meUstedes no me creerán
Come see her tomorrowMañana vengan a verla
Surely you won't believe meSeguro ustedes no me creerán
Come see her tomorrowMañana vengan a verla

And she sews, like a hurricaneY cose, como un huracán

But with a machine, with a machine, with a machine it wasPero con maquina, con maquina, con maquina era
(And I don't have a machine)(Y no tengo maquina)
