Aqui No Me Quedo

I Ain't Staying Here

Aqui No Me Quedo

I wish I could live, up high in the mountainsQuisiera poder vivir, bien arriba en la montaña
And have my cabin there, and then live happilyY allí tener mi cabaña, y entonces vivir feliz
And be able to contemplate, the beauty of my countryY así poder contemplar, lo lindo de mi país
Listen dear brothers, to what I have to sayOigan queridos hermanos, lo que les vengo a decir

Let's go to the mountains, let's goVámonos pa' la montaña, vámonos
To eat roasted porkA comer lechón asao'
Or maybe a good stewO sino un buen asopao'
Well seasonedQue esté bien condimentao'
Let's go to the mountainsVámonos pa' la montaña
I ain't staying hereQue yo no me quedo aquí

What a shame to leave the train from south ParisQue pena me da dejar el tren de south París
I ain't staying, I ain't staying hereYo no me quedo yo no me quedo aquí
I wish I could climb with Jesus and see from the mountainQuisiera poder con jisu y treparme mira en la montaña
And see the beauty of my countryY mirar lo lindo mamita de mí país

Mom, Puerto Rico is calling meMamá, borinquen rica me llama
How nice it would be to hear that coqui at nightQue lindo sería escucharse por la noche ese coqui
And to wake up to the rooster crowing, look momY al levantarse cantar el gallo mira mami
I ain't staying, I ain't stayingYo no me quedo, yo no me quedo
I ain't staying, I ain't staying hereYo no me quedo, yo no me quedo aquí

Let's cross the pond, yesVamos a cruzar el charco sí
Puerto Rico is calling me to have funBorinquen me esta llamando pa' goza'
I wish to have my farm and my cabin and milk my cowQuisiera tener mi finca y mi cabaña y mi vaca ordeñar
I'm Puerto Rican, buddy, and that's how I amYo soy boricua compay' y soy así

With my people eating stew at Chichi's houseCon mi gente comiendo asopao' en casa e' la chichi
And Pacheco walking around thereY pacheco caminando allí
I ain't staying, I ain't stayingYo no me quedo, yo no me quedo
I ain't staying, I ain't staying hereYo no me quedo, yo no me quedo aquí
I would regret if I hadn't been born thereYo estuviera arrepentido si no hubiera nacido allí
I'm going to enjoy myselfQue yo me voy a gozar
