Vas Bien

Doing fine, doing fineVas bien, vas bien
Who they took to Vietnam, it was Armando's sonA quién se llevaron pa' Vietnam, fue al hijo de Armando
And as a natural thing, he was tremblingY como una cosa natural, él iba temblando
They say as soon as he approached the battlefieldDicen que tan pronto se acercó al campo de batalla
The lieutenant without thinking twice, shot himEl teniente sin pensarlo más, le dio una metralla
And told him, be very cautious, if you hear a noiseY le dijo, sé muy precavido tú, si sientes un ruido tú
Don't despair, that's how you're doing fineNo te desesperes tú, que así es que vas bien

You're doing fine there, you're doing fine there, you're doing fine kid you're doing fineVas bien ahí, vas bien ahí, vas bien muchacho vas bien
You're doing fine there, you're doing fine there, you're doing fine kid you're doing fineVas bien ahí, vas bien ahí, vas bien muchacho vas bien

Suddenly a shadow moved and the scared boyDe pronto una sombra se movió y el chico asustado
Took off running and whoosh! He boltedPuso pies en polvorosa y ¡fua! Salió disparado
Find another man, he shouted in the middle of the raceBúsquese otro hombre, gritaba en plena carrera
Because I won't get caught, not even tied up with a chainPues lo que es a mí no me coge ni amarrado con cadena
The lieutenant yelled at him, come and do your dutyEl teniente le grito, ven y cumple tu deber
If it's your own shadow you're running from, but you're doing fineSi es tu misma sombra a lo quien tú le huyes, pero tú vas bien
