El Compadre

The Buddy

El Compadre

At night he goes out and he's partyingPor las noches va y con la juerga está
With the party and the kid gets lost...Con la fiesta y se te pierde el chaval...
The police are on his trailLa policia va tras la huella está
Behind the door they're looking for the kid.Tras la puerta te está buscando chaval.

And he laughed as he lookedY se reía mientras miraba
Lighting his cigarette,Su cigarro al encender,
And at night the women laughed at him,Y por la noche las mujeres le reían,
The stairs go down and the street goes up,La escalera cuesta abajo y la calle cuesta arriba,
Today the police are only looking for you...La policía hoy te busca sólo a tí...
