Los Chismes

The Gossips

Los Chismes

Just as I opened my mouth I was about to get marriedNada más abrí la boca que ya estaba por casarme
And the people who are curious ended up asking meY la gente que es curiosa termino por preguntarme
Upon knowing who the bride is, they wanted to discourage meAl saber quien es la novia, ya querían desanimarme

They say you're somewhat blind, that doesn't matter to me so muchDicen que eres algo ciega, eso no me importa tanto
I want you as my wife, not as a targetYo te quiero pa' mi esposa, no para tirar al blanco
When you don't see me, you tempt me, so you know where I amCuando no me veas me tientas, pa' que sepas por dónde ando

I don't care about the gossipA mí los chismes me vienen flojos
And I don't care what they say out thereY no me importa lo que digan por ahí
I love you so much, my dearTe quiero mucho, bien de mi vida
And no one will ever be able to keep me away from youY nunca naiden me podrá alejar de ti

They also say you're ugly, that doesn't interest meTambién dicen que eres fea, eso a mí no me interesa
Because I've never wanted you for a beauty contestPorque nunca te he querido pa' concurso de belleza
Even if you were cheap, to me you're a princessAunque fueras cacarisa, para mí eres princesa

They say you're skinny, I already knew thatPor ahí dicen que eres flaca, eso ya me lo sabía
After all, I don't want you to be a butcher shopAl cabos, que no te quiero pa' poner carnicería
If I wanted a chubby girl, I know I could get oneSi quisiera una gordita, sé que me la conseguía

They told me you're dark-skinned and that I won't look at youMe dijeron que estás prieta y que no te voy a mirar
I have a lot of money and I'll send you to get nickel-platedYo tengo mucho dinero y te mando niquelar
So you can sparkle and I can see you in the darkPara que relampaguees y te vea en la oscuridad

I don't care about the gossipA mí los chismes me vienen flojos
And I don't care what they say out thereY no me importa lo que digan por ahí
I love you so much, my dearTe quiero mucho, bien de mi vida
And no one will ever be able to keep me away from youY nunca naiden me podrá alejar de ti
