La Cabaretera

The Cabaret Girl

La Cabaretera

The love you gave meEl amor que me diste
Was never sincereNunca fue sincero
The love you gave meEl amor que me diste
Was always, for moneySiempre fue, por dinero

And yet I fell in love with youY aun así de ti yo me enamoré

Without caring who you wereSin importarme lo que fueras
Being your cabaret girlSiendo tu cabaretera
Oh, I sought your affection, black girlAy yo buscaba tu cariño negra
And you sought my walletY tu buscabas mi cartera

I sought your affection and you sought my walletYo buscaba tu cariño y tú buscaba mi cartera
Value, value your bodyValor, valor tiene tu cuerpo
Your body is a coin, cabaret girlTu cuerpo es una moneda, cabaretera
I sought your affection and you sought my walletYo buscaba tu cariño y tú buscaba mi cartera
You said you loved meDijiste que me querías
You have never loved anyoneTú nunca has querido a nadie
Your husband is interestTu marido es el interés
Your lover a big billTu amante un billete grande
I sought your affection and you sought my walletYo buscaba tu cariño y tú buscaba mi cartera
Look, look, look, you make me pityMira, mira, mira lastima me das
I have a little left here in my checkbookMe queda un poquito aquí en mi chequera
I sought your affection and you sought my walletYo buscaba tu cariño y tú buscaba mi cartera
