Trapito Colorado
Hace cuatro días que bajates al río
Traías un vestido blanco
Y un trapito Colorado
Enroscado en una mano
Te cubrías con la yompa
Tenias frío venias temblando
Yo la vi de que iba por la costa bajo
Traía un bule en una mano
Y le dije señorita
Deme el bule pa llenarlo
No vaya a ser que se moje
Y le pegue algún catarro
Muchas gracias joven es un caballero
No se hubiera molestado
Me dibujo una sonrisa
Y yo me quede atontado
Cuando dijo le regalo
Mi trapito Colorado
Desde entonces la traigo en mi pensamiento
Por su culpa ya no duermo
Miro el trapo Colorado
Parece que la estoy viendo
La joven me ah enamorado
Y se que me esta queriendo
Desde entonces voy al río pa ventearla
Ya quiero mirarla luego
Soy un hombre de palabra
Le pediré con respeto
Que si quiere ser mi novia?
Y yo fiel seré su dueño
Hace cuatro días que la traigo en mi pecho
Me trae todo ilusionado
Todavía ni la conozco
Y ya siento que la amo
A la que me dio en el río
El trapito Colorado
Red Rag
Four days ago you went down to the river
You were wearing a white dress
And a red rag
Twisted in one hand
You covered yourself with the jacket
You were cold, you were trembling
I saw her walking along the coast
Carrying a bucket in one hand
And I said, miss
Give me the bucket to fill it
So it doesn't get wet
And you catch a cold
Thank you very much, young man, you are a gentleman
You didn't have to bother
She drew a smile for me
And I was left stunned
When she said she gave me
My red rag
Since then I carry her in my thoughts
Because of her, I can't sleep anymore
I look at the red rag
It's like I'm seeing her
The young woman has enchanted me
And I know she loves me
Since then I go to the river to see her
I want to see her soon
I am a man of my word
I will ask her respectfully
If she wants to be my girlfriend?
And I will faithfully be her owner
Four days ago I carry her in my chest
She has me all excited
I still don't know her
And I already feel that I love her
To the one who gave me at the river
The red rag
