Mercedes
me dijo mercedes, me dijo mercedes
me dijo mercedes soy una persona buena
yo que tengo la virtud de conocer a mercedes
le dije mercedes vamonos pa`cartagena
ado no me voy contigo
ado me da mucna pena
porque tu vives apenado de tu mujer y de tus hijos
soy un bachiller para ti no es nada
yo tengo experiencia mercedes soy profesor
y por elogiarte por ti soy compositor
ya veras mercedes tienes vida asegurada
mucho puedo ser amada, no me lo sigas diciendo
no me entrego ni me vendo, ado
del rancho salgo casada
Te brindo mercedes la oportunidad
de pasear en coche la costa del mar caribe
la popa, la boquilla yo te llevo a conocer,
para la luna de miel dejamo`el hotel caribe.
ayer dijiste te quiero
hoy me pides que te olvide
despues que matas al tigre merce,
le sales corriendo al cuero
Mercedes
She told me Mercedes, she told me Mercedes
She told me Mercedes, I'm a good person
I, who have the virtue of knowing Mercedes
I told Mercedes, let's go to Cartagena
I'm not going with you
It gives me a lot of pain
Because you live in shame of your wife and children
I'm a bachelor, it's nothing to you
I have experience, Mercedes, I'm a teacher
And to praise you, I'm a composer for you
You'll see, Mercedes, you have a secure life
I can be loved a lot, don't keep telling me
I don't give myself away or sell myself, I'm not going
From the ranch I come out married
I offer you, Mercedes, the opportunity
To ride in a car along the Caribbean coast
La Popa, La Boquilla, I'll take you to see
For the honeymoon, we leave the Hotel Caribe
Yesterday you said you love me
Today you ask me to forget you
After you kill the tiger, Mercedes
You run away from the leather
