La Batatita

In Córdoba capital, in the neighborhood of Villa Páez, there was one of those women who cure you of all ills. And seeing her because of love sickness and seeing her because of my sweetheart, let's see if that woman would make me feel a little pain.En Córdoba capital, en el barrio de Villa Páez, había una de esas mujeres que te curan de todos los males. Y al verla por mal de amor y a verla por mi amorcito, a ver si esa mujer me sacaba un dolorcito.
It hurt me here, it hurt me here.Me dolía acá, me dolía acá.
And he told me like this, listen well.Y me dijo así, escuhá bien.

Don't bury a carrot, don't bury the beans, to get your love back you have to bury the sweet potato.No entierre una zanahoria, no vaya a enterrar la chaucha, para recuperar a su amor hay que enterrar la batata.

Putting, taking out, putting, taking out, putting and taking out.Poniendo, sacando, poniendo, sacando, poniendo y sacando.
