Pueblerina

Small Town Girl

Pueblerina

Today I remember my small town girlfriendHoy recuerdo mi novia la pueblerina
The one I still, the one I stillLa que todavía, la que todavía
Keep present in my thoughtsLa llevo presente en el pensamiento
And who cried one day, and who cried one dayY que llore un día, y que llore un día
The one who decided to leave the town because she was boredLa que ayer decidió marcharse del pueblo porque le aburria
And promised to come back on New Year's, that she would write to meY me prometio volver en año nuevo, que me escribiria
I waited eagerly for her kissesYo la esperaba muy deseoso de sus besos
And with a desire to love her more and moreY con ansias de quererla mas y mas
But then her return was impossiblePero entonces fue imposible su regreso
I thought she would come for the town's festivalDije entonces vendrá para la patronal
How sad I waited, how sad to waitQue triste espere, que triste esperar
How sad to wait for her returnQue triste esperar su regreso

And the months kept passing byY los mese se fuero pasando
And the traditional hour arrivedY llego la hora tradicional
Everyone was already celebratingTodo el mundo ya estaba estrenando
And the joy kept growing more and moreY la alegría crecía mas y mas
Men and women were dancingHombres y mujeres van bailando
Very happy on the main streetMuy contentos por la calle real
Meanwhile, I kept waitingMientras tanto yo seguía esperando
Oh! tell me God when will she come backAy! dime dios cuando volverá
When will she come back, when will she come backCuando volverá, cuando volverá
When will she come back, that brunetteCuando volverá, esa morena

Hoping that one day she would returnCon la esperanza de que algún día volviera
I wrote to her first, I wrote to her firstLe escribí primero, le escribí primero
I had so much longing for her to replyMuchas ansias tuve que me respondiera
I never saw the mailman, I never saw the mailmanNunca vi al cartero, nunca vi al cartero
I called where she said she livedLa llame donde dijo que vivía
And no one answered meY no me respondieron
And since no one answered meY en vista de que nadien me respondía
I hung up firstColgaba primero
Now I think it's so bad to loveAhora pienso que es tan malo querer
And give oneself wholeheartedlyY entregarse uno de todo corazón
Because I waited so much for that womanPorque tanto esperaba esa mujer
That she didn't even send me a reasonQue ni si quiera me mandaba una razón
No reason, no reasonNinguna razón, ninguna razón
No reason, she has sent meNinguna razón, me ha mandado

Normally the world kept turningNormalmente el mundo seguía girando
After causing me so much painDespués que me causo tanto mal
And the roles were changingY los papeles fueron cambiando
So I decided to forgetY entonces me decidí olvidar
And I won't waste on youY en ti no pienso desperdiciar
What another woman might give meLo que otra mujer quizá me de
Therefore, don't come back anymorePor lo tanto ya no vuelvas mas
Don't come back anymore, don't come back anymoreYa no vuelvas mas, ya no vuelvas mas
Don't come back anymore, I'm tired of waitingYa no vuelvas mas, me canse de esperar
Don't come back anymore, I beg youYa no vuelvas mas, te lo ruego
Don't come back anymore, sweetheartYa no vuelvas mas, cariñito
Don't come back anymore, I don't want youYa no vuelvas mas, no te quiero
