Mi Tenampa

My Dive Bar

Mi Tenampa

What kind of love are you talking aboutCual cariño es el que dices
That I gave you with all my soulQue te dí con toda el alma.
When you opened up to meCuando abriste tú conmigo
The blinds of my dive barLas persianas del Tenampa.
You who know about partyingTú que sabes de parranda,
You who understand about passionsTú que entiendes por pasiones,
You when you hear a mariachi bandTú cuando oyes un mariachi
You don't even understand their songsNi conpriendes sus canciones.

Partying and my dive barParranda y Tenampa,
Mariachis and songsMariachis y canciones.
That's how I liveAsi es como vivo yo.
You, you who know about lifeTú,tú que sabes de la vida,
About life among the drinksDe la vida entre las copas.
You to be my favoriteTú pá ser mi consentida,
Need many thingsNecesitas muchas cosas.

I stand at the barYo me paro en la cantina,
I already greet the ungrateful onesYa saludo de las ingratas.
I make sure the wine is servedHago que se sirva vino
So that serenades are bornPá que nazcan serenata.
And once it's well servedY una vez ya bien servido,
I head towards my dive barVoy a rumbo del Tenampa.
And there I grab my mariachi bandY ahí me agarro a mi mariachi
And sing with all my soulY a cantar con toda el alma.
