El Tinaco

The Water Tank

El Tinaco

Hush, frogsSilencio ranas
coming down to the toadque bajan para el sapo
from the direction of Tuzantladel rumbo de tuzantla
I bring you a corridoles traigo un corridaso
for a classy chickpara un pollito fino
who's up for a fightque pinta pa gallaso

From the mulberry treesDe los morales
they call him the water tankle apodan el tinaco
nephew of Don Nicosobrino de don nico
and the classy Silvanoy del fino silvano
from Don Fidel the sicode don fidel el sico
pure runaway roosterpuro gallo fugado

Get out, losersAfuera sotas
let the swept-up stuff outque salga lo barrido
because the water tank is playingpor que el tinaco toca
and he's letting loose quicky se suelta cortito
2,3 dicks know itlo sabe 2,3 chotas
and more than six damn bastardsy mas de seis malditos

Ask a sequiriPreguntenle a un sequiri
over on the other sidealla en el otro lado
he was denied entry to a dancele nego entrar a un baile
and paid a high pricey lo pago muy caro
he got seven shotsle dio siete balasos
and peeled out in his cary se pelo en su carro

Because the water tankPor que al tinaco
doesn't give a damntodo le vale madre
because he's from the mulberriespor que es de los morales
from those who pull heavyde los que jalan grueso
and working hardy trabajando duro
they know how to earn the buckssaben ganar los pesos

with just one punchde un solo madraso
