El Gallito

The Little Rooster

El Gallito

Shake yourself....Sacudete....

This is the fine little roosterEste es el gallito fino
This is the runaway roosterEste es el gallo fugado
Tie up your little hensAmarren a sus pollitas
Because he's a daring roosterPor que es un gallo aventado

The little horse danceEl baile del caballito
Is danced very tightlySe baila muy apretado
If you dance with the roosterSi bailan con el gallito
You have to be carefulHay que tenerle cuidado

That rooster is very goodEse gallito es muy bueno
That's why everyone dances itPor eso lo bailan todos
They dance it like a little horseLo bailan de caballito
When Recodo plays itCuando lo toca el recodo
