El Chacombo
A donde panchita mata cuando vino de maestra
Fuimos catorce en la orquesta a darle una serenata
Yo tocaba con la pata en un tarro viejo e combo
El que tocaba el chacombo era un tuerto desconfiado
Y había que tener cuidado con el anafre de chocolate
Un centavito de anís, diez centavos de maíz
Un pedacito de queso
Y armado todito eso
A todos los invitó
Curruncun a curruncun
Chacombo
The Chacombo
Where Panchita kills when she came as a teacher
We were fourteen in the orchestra to give her a serenade
I played with my foot on an old drum and combo
The one who played the chacombo was a suspicious one-eyed man
And you had to be careful with the chocolate stove
A penny of anise, ten cents of corn
A little piece of cheese
And all that put together
He invited everyone
Curruncun a curruncun
Chacombo
