La Tertulia
La otra noche fui de fiesta en cas'e Julia
Se encontraba ya reunida la familia
Mari-Pepa, Felícitas, Luz y Otilia
Y Camila, que alegraba la tertulia
Mientras Lupe daba al niño su mamila
Doña Cleta pidió un botella a Celia
Nos formó a los de confianza dos en fila
Y brindamos con charanda de Morelia
Después Amelia puso la vitrola
Y le tupimos a la danza, ahí, hechos bola
Había un cadete que celaba a Chelo
Mas la canija con Gaspar se daba vuelo
Después nos dieron sangüichitos de jalea
A unos ponche y a los tristes Coca-Cola
Como la gata pa' servir ni se menea
Pa' la cocina yo me fui con mi charola
Ahí me encontré con los amiguitos de Ofelia
Que a contrabando habían pasado su tequila
Nos aventamos unas copas tras la pila
Y por poquito ya mero nos cae Amelia
Luego pidieron que cantara Lola
Y soportamos: Ahí te doy la despedida
Después tía Cleta tocó la pianola
Pa' que no hablara le dimos buena aplaudida
Yo me hice fuerte y les canté: La carta a Eufemia
Que me echo un gallo y un changuito me vacila
Que me le arranco, pero me detuvo Ugenia
Si no en el limbo ya estuviera haciendo fila
Pero ya estaba digerida la jalea
Pos la mujer del general me hacía la bola
Fue con el chisme la metiche de Carola
Y vino el viejo y que comienza la pelea
Se armó el relajo, sacó su pistola
Yo, precavido, me escondí tras la pianola
Vino la Julia, que llamó Carola
Y pa' la cárcel nos llevaron hechos bola
The Gathering
The other night I went to a party at Julia's house
The family was already gathered
Mari-Pepa, Felícitas, Luz and Otilia
And Camila, who brightened up the gathering
While Lupe gave the baby his bottle
Doña Cleta asked Celia for a bottle
She lined up those we trusted in two rows
And we toasted with charanda from Morelia
Then Amelia put on the record player
And we danced, all mixed up
There was a cadet who was jealous of Chelo
But the little one was having fun with Gaspar
Then they gave us jelly sandwiches
Some had punch and the sad ones had Coca-Cola
The cat doesn't even move to serve
I went to the kitchen with my tray
There I found Ofelia's little friends
Who had smuggled in their tequila
We had a few drinks behind the pile
And we almost had Amelia fall over
Then they asked Lola to sing
And we endured: There I bid you farewell
Then Aunt Cleta played the piano
So she wouldn't talk, we gave her a good round of applause
I gathered my courage and sang: The letter to Eufemia
Which made me laugh and a little monkey teased me
I was about to start, but Eugenia stopped me
If not, I would already be in line in limbo
But the jelly was already digested
The general's wife was making a fuss over me
It was Carola, the gossip, who caused trouble
And the old man came and the fight began
Chaos broke out, he pulled out his gun
I, cautious, hid behind the piano
Julia came, called Carola
And they took us to jail, all mixed up
