La Culebra
(Obdulio Morales)
Ibamos pa la molienda
Ibamos pa la molienda
De pronto yo vi
cerquita de allí
habia una culebra
Mirando pa mi
Yo grité: "ay la culebra!"
Yo grité: "ay la culebra!"
La gente esta diciendo
que ahorita se va
de pronto empezaron todito a gritar
Oye José. Oye José
Ven pa acá
'Cuidao' con la culebra
Que muerde los pies
Si me muerde lo pie 'voa' tenerla que matar
Si me muerde lo pie yo la quiero acurruñar
Echa pa'lla!
Ven pa acá
'Cuidao' con la culebra
Que muerde los pies
Que si me muerde lo pie yo no puedo trabajar
Si me muerde lo pie yo la tengo que matar
Verdad, José
Ven pa acá
'Cuidao' con la culebra
Que muerde los pies
Ya me voy de la molienda
Ya me voy de la molienda
The Snake
(Obdulio Morales)
We were going to the sugar mill
We were going to the sugar mill
Suddenly I saw
close by
there was a snake
Looking at me
I shouted: "oh the snake!"
I shouted: "oh the snake!"
People are saying
that it's leaving now
suddenly they all started to shout
Hey José. Hey José
Come here
Beware of the snake
That bites the feet
If it bites my foot I'll have to kill it
If it bites my foot I want to cuddle it
Go over there!
Come here
Beware of the snake
That bites the feet
If it bites my foot I can't work
If it bites my foot I have to kill it
Right, José
Come here
Beware of the snake
That bites the feet
I'm leaving the sugar mill
I'm leaving the sugar mill
