Yo no tomo con hombre

I don't drink with men

Yo no tomo con hombre

From mouth to mouth, gossip goes aroundDe boca en boca, anda el bochinche
when a man drinks and gets drunk, it's worth nothingcuando un hombre toma y se emborracha no vale na'
he changes his way of speaking and walkingcambia el hablao, y el caminao
and forgets that not long ago he was a real many se olvida que hace poco el era un macho de verdad

From mouth to mouth, gossip goes aroundDe boca en boca, anda el bochinche
that's why when there are no women around, I don't like it at allporeso cuando no hay muje' a mi, no me gusta na'
I stay still, alone at homeme quedo quieto, solo en mi casa
let someone else touch me, that nonsense doesn't work for meque me toque otro conmigo no va esa pendeja

And suddenly, he turns into jellyY de un momento a otro, se vuelve gelatina
they say poor Adelina was left without a mandicen que se quedo sin hombre la pobre Adelina
and suddenly she dreams of something on topy de un momento a otro suena con algo encima
the size of a very large cathedral that breaks her spinedel tamano de una catedral bien grande que le parta la espina

From mouth to mouth, gossip goes aroundDe boca en boca, anda el bochinche
that when a man drinks and gets drunk, he becomes nothingque cuando un hombre toma y se emborracha se vuelve na'
he crosses his legs, folds his handcruza las piernas, dobla la mano
and winks as if he were a crazy womany guiña el ojo como si fuera una loca arrebata'

From mouth to mouth, gossip goes aroundDe boca en boca, anda el bochinche
that's why when there are no women around, I don't like it at allpor eso cuando no hay muje' a mi, no me gusta na'
I stay still, alone at homeme quedo quieto, solo en mi casa
let someone else touch me, that nonsense doesn't work for meque me toque otro conmigo no va esa pendeja'

And suddenly, he turns into jellyY de un momento a otro, se vuelve gelatina
they say poor Adelina was left without a mandicen que se quedo sin hombre la pobre adelina
and suddenly she dreams of something on topy de un momento a otro suena con algo encima
the size of a very large cathedral that breaks her spinedel tamaño de una catedral bien grande que le parta la espina

Chorus:Coro:

That's why when there are no women around, I don't like it at allPor eso cuando no hay mujeres no me gusta na'
Let someone else touch me, that nonsense doesn't work for meQue me toque otro conmigo no va esa pendeja'
I don't drink with menYo con hombre no tomono

Chants:Pregones:

Eeeeeehhhhhhh I don't go out to dance like thatEeeeeehhhhhhh yo asi no salgo a bailar
You never know what happens when a man gets drunkNo se sabe lo que pasa cuando un hombre se emboracha
After two drinks, they're not manly at allDespues de dos, no estan macho, ni na ni na
Let them touch him, let them look at him, and so it begins diri diraQue lo toquen, que lo miren, y asi comienza diri dira
I don't change the honey or the sweetness my black woman gives me at homeYo no cambio la miel ni la dulsura que mi negra en la casa me da
And let them play the bongó until dawnY que le den bongó, hasta la madrugaa'
That doesn't work for meEso conmigo no va
No no no no, no way, that doesn't work for meNo no no no que va, que va eso conmigo no va
If a hairy hand comes out and touches me, makes me shiverQue salga una mano peluda me toque, me toque y me haga erisar
I, who am black, can't even blushYo que soy negrito, y ni si quiera me puede ruborizar
I don't drink with men, not even to the corner. I dance closely with GuillerminaYo con hombre, ni a la esquina. yo bailo apretaito con Guillermina
And let them play the bongó, and why should I care, let them playY que le den bomgó que, y que me importa a mí, que le den que le den
No no no no no no no, I can't like thatQue no no no no no no no, que no me puede gustar
A fuzz in his beard, then he says my name is BarbaraUna pelusa en su barba, luego te dice yo me llamo Bárbara
That doesn't work for me, that doesn't work for me, but that doesn't work for meConmigo no va,conmigo no va, pero que conmigo eso
