Marijuana

La Mariguana

Things get goodSe pone buena la cosa
When it starts to rainCuando empieza a llover
How happy the people areQue alegre esta la plevada
When they see them runningCuando miran ya correr
The streams of my ranchLos arrollos de mi rancho
Marijuana was going to seeMariguanas iva aver

The first days of JulyLos primeros dia de julio
They will fix the landLa tierra van arreglar
By mid-monthPara mediados del mes
Where to throw the seedLa semilla ande tirar
And in one, two or three monthsY en uno dos o tre meses
The harvest to raiseLa cosecha a levantar

People are happyAnda la gente contenta
Because they are already harvestingPor que ya andan cosechando
Some are picking the little holeUnos piscando el oyito
Others have taken a little longerOtros pocos an tardado
Because the buyers are aroundPor que andan los compradores
They are already packaging itYa la andan empacando

They gave the four in the fiveDieron las cuatro en la cinco
And all weekY en todita la semana
Some bring cars of the yearUnos traen carros del año
Strolling and with some ladiesPaseando y con unas damas
They thank the rainLe agradecen a la lluvia
Because there are already frog skinsPor que ya hay cueros de rana

10 tons went awaySe fueron 10 toneladas
The plane took offYa se levanto el avion
It took 22 tripsSe llevo 22 viajes
The engine was very smallEra muy chico el motor
And arriving in MexicaliY llegando a mexicali
It returned in my motorSe regreso en mi motro

Arriving at the borderYa llegando a la frontera
They start to cross itYa la empiezan a cruzar
One goes to ArizonaUna va para arizona
And the other stays thereY la otra se queda aya
Waiting for the next tripEsperando el otro viaje
So they can afford itPa que les pueda costear

Because the weed they sellPor que la mota que venden

They gave the four and the fiveDieron las cuatro y las cinco
