Duerme Negrito
Duerme, duerme, negrito
Que tu mama está en el campo, negrito
Duerme, duerme, mobila
Que tu mama está en el campo, mobila
Te va traer codornices, para ti
Te va a traer carne de cerdo, para ti
Te va a traer rica fruta, para ti
Te va a traer muchas cosas, Para ti
Y si el negro no se duerme
Viene el diablo blanco
Y zas le come la patita
Chicapumba, chicapumba, apumba, chicapumb.
Duerme, duerme, negrita
Que tu mama está en el campo, Negrita
Duerme, duerme, mobila
Que tu mama está en el campo, mobila
Trabajando, trabajando duramente
Trabajando sí, trabajando y va de luto
Trabajando sí, trabajando y no le pagan
Trabajando sí, trabajando y va tosiendo
Trabajando sí, pa'l negrito chiquitito
Pa'l negrito sí, pa'l negrito sí
Trabajando sí...
Te va traer codornices, para ti
Te va a traer carne de cerdo, para ti
Te va a traer rica fruta, para ti
Te va a traer muchas cosas, Para ti
Y si el negro no se duerme
Viene el diablo blanco
Y zas le come la patita
Chicapumba, chicapumba, apumba, chicapumb.
Duerme, duerme, negrita
Duerme, duerme, negrita
Que tu mama está en el campo, Negrita
Sleep, Little Black One
Sleep, sleep, little black one
Your mama is in the field, little black one
Sleep, sleep, my little one
Your mama is in the field, my little one
She'll bring you quails, just for you
She'll bring you pork meat, just for you
She'll bring you delicious fruit, just for you
She'll bring you many things, for you
And if the black one doesn't fall asleep
The white devil comes
And bam, he eats his little foot
Chickaboom, chickaboom, boom, chickaboom
Sleep, sleep, little black girl
Your mama is in the field, little black girl
Sleep, sleep, my little one
Your mama is in the field, my little one
Working, working hard
Working yes, working and dressed in mourning
Working yes, working and not getting paid
Working yes, working and coughing
Working yes, for the little black one
For the little black one yes, for the little black one yes
Working yes...
She'll bring you quails, just for you
She'll bring you pork meat, just for you
She'll bring you delicious fruit, just for you
She'll bring you many things, for you
And if the black one doesn't fall asleep
The white devil comes
And bam, he eats his little foot
Chickaboom, chickaboom, boom, chickaboom
Sleep, sleep, little black girl
Sleep, sleep, little black girl
Your mama is in the field, little black girl
