The Little Truck (feat. Lalo Mora)

La Troquita (part. Lalo Mora)

A little red truck, always on the move, belongs to Don IsaacUna troquita coloradita rumbadorcita es de don isaac
It's a real powerhouse, never stays put, always on the goEs tironera como cualquiera, nunca se queda ni aqui ni allá
There are plenty of folks who are its regulars, and suddenly they hear it honkHay muchas gentes que son sus clientes y de repente la oyen pitar
The passengers load up with their bags, heading out, off to TeránSale el pasaje con su equipaje que va de viaje, va pa terán

Zooming by, that damn thing, loaded up, off to TeránPasa volada la condenada, va bien cargada va pa terán
It comes back in the afternoon with Don Isaac's buddy and his wifeVuelve en la tarde con el compadre y la comadre de don isaac
It's a great ride for driving at night, shifts smooth without a grindEs muy buen coche pa andar de noche le aplana el clutch sin rechinar
'Cause its owner stays awake, and with a lot of effort, he knows how to drive it rightPorque su dueño no le da sueño y con mucho empeño la sabe arrear

For the sake of order, it doesn’t rush, and it won’t last without workPor compostura ella no se apura y no le dura sin trabajar
It takes apart the little bits, piece by piece, and soon it’s back in shapeQuita fierritos poco a poquito y muy prontito la vuelve a armar
And Victorina, who’s top-notch in the kitchen, you’ll find her thereY victorina que es cosa fina en la cocina la ha de encontrar
She’s cooking and making tortillas, waiting for Don IsaacEsta guisando y esta torteando esta esperando a don isaac

Zooming by, that damn thing, loaded up, off to TeránPasa volada la condenada, va bien cargada va pa terán
It comes back in the afternoon with Don Isaac's buddy and his wifeVuelve en la tarde con el compadre y la comadre de don isaac
It's a great ride for driving at night, shifts smooth without a grindEs muy buen coche pa andar de noche le aplana el clutch sin rechinar
'Cause its owner stays awake, and with a lot of effort, he knows how to drive it rightPorque su dueño no le da sueño y con mucho empeño la sabe arrear
