Las Muchachas

The Girls

Las Muchachas

They tell me the Cuban woman has a fire in her waistMe dicen que la cubana tiene un fuego en la cintura
No one can beat her when a rumba playsBailando nadie le gana cuando repica una rumba
They say the Colombian woman has a pretty faceCuentan que la colombiana tiene la cara bonita
And they say the Peruvian woman has a small mouthY dicen que la peruana tiene la boca chiquita
I know well that in Buenos Aires all the chickens are goodYo sé bien que en Buenos Aires todos los pollos son buenos
That nothing compares to a Chilean chickQue no hay nada comparable con un pollito chileno
But when I see a woman from HavanaPero cuando veo una habanera
My blood boilsToda la sangre se me alborota
And if I see a woman from MatanzasY si veo yo una matancera
Then I really lose control (up)Entonces sí que boto la pelota (arriba)
