A mi pequeña María

To My Little Maria

A mi pequeña María

It was Maria, the sluttiest drag queen in town,Era Maria, el travestí mas golfo del lugar,
by far, the most beautiful woman. (Repeat)con mucho, la mujer mas bonita. (Bis)
And I was just a neighborhood kid, that's right,Y yo tan sólo un chico de barrio eso si,
the worst troublemaker on the streets.el peor bicho sobre el asfalto.
We met at the police station,En la comisaría nos conocimos,
if God made us, the cops brought us together.si dios nos hizo, la poli nos junto.
Your habit of doing it anywhere,Esa costumbre tuya de hacerlo en cualquier lugar,
behind bars, in the elevator.entre rejas, en el ascensor.
Days that end, there are black lights in the night,Días que al morir, hay luces negras en la noche,
there are black lights in the night, there are black lightshay luces negras en la noche, hay luces negras
in the night, they say that star, is theen la noche, dicen que aquella estrella, es el
red lipstick from your lips.carmín de tus labios.
You were so inspired in the confessional,En el confesionario estuviste tan inspirada,
because even a whore, you were always very holy.porque aunque puta, siempre fuiste muy santa.
In an ATM without a card, under the table and on the train,En un cajero sin tarjeta, bajo la mesa y en el tren,
by the sea on a boat in the estuary.junto al mar sobre un bote en la ría.
You disappeared without saying goodbye,Desapareciste sin decir adiós,
that was your style, I always liked it.era tu estilo, siempre me gustó.
They tell me you're no longer in this world,Me cuentan que ya no eres de este mundo,
behind bars, in the elevator.entre rejas, en el ascensor.
Days that end, there are black lights in the night,Días que al morir, hay luces negras en la noche,
there are black lights in the night, there are black lightshay luces negras en la noche, hay luces negras
in the night, they say that star, is theen la noche, dicen que aquella estrella, es el
red lipstick from your lips.carmín de tus labios.
Days that end...Días que al morir...
