Corazón de Mayo

Dann W. Quinn

Sweatheart May

I will sing you a song, and it won't be very long
'Bout a maiden sweet, and she never would do wrong
Everyone said she was pretty. She was not long in the city
All alone, oh, what a pity, poor little maid

She never saw the streets of Cairo
On the Midway she had never strayed
She never saw the kutchy-kutchy
Poor little country maid

She was engaged as a picture for to pose
To appear each night in abbreviated clothes
All the dudes were in a flurry, for to catch her they did hurry
One who caught her now is sorry, poor little maid

She was much fairer far than Trilby
Lots of more men sorry will be
If they don't try to keep away from
This poor little country maid

She never saw the streets of Cairo
On the Midway she had never strayed
She never saw the kutchy-kutchy
Poor little country maid

Corazón de Mayo

Te cantaré una canción, y no será muy larga
Sobre una doncella dulce, y nunca haría nada malo
Todos decían que era bonita. No duró mucho en la ciudad
Todo sola, oh, qué lástima, pobre jovencita

Nunca vio las calles de El Cairo
En la Feria nunca se había desviado
Nunca vio el kutchy-kutchy
Pobre campesina

Fue contratada como modelo para posar
Para aparecer cada noche en ropa abreviada
Todos los tipos estaban alborotados, corrieron para atraparla
Quien la atrapó ahora lo lamenta, pobre jovencita

Era mucho más hermosa que Trilby
Muchos más hombres lamentarán
Si no intentan mantenerse alejados de
Esta pobre campesina

Nunca vio las calles de El Cairo
En la Feria nunca se había desviado
Nunca vio el kutchy-kutchy
Pobre campesina
