La Negra Tiene Tumbao

The Black Woman Has Swagger

La Negra Tiene Tumbao

That little black girl walkingEsa negrita que va caminando
That black girl has her swaggerEsa negrita tiene su tumbao
And when people are looking at herY cuando la gente la va mirando
She dances from side to side, very tight, tight, tightElla baila de lao va bien apretao apretao apretao

The black woman has swaggerLa negra tiene tumbao
sugar sugarazucar azucar
And she doesn't walk sidewaysY no camina de lao

If you want to go straightSi quieres llegar derecho
It's better to walk forwardMejor camina de frente
So there are no stumblesPara que no hayan tropiezos
And they come and regretY vengan y te lamenten

If you want to arrive firstSi quieres llegar primero
It's better to run slowlyMejor se corre despacio
Enjoy life wellDisfruta bien de la vida
Even taking measures sugarAunque tomando medidas azucar

Chorus:Coro:
The black woman has swagger has swagger has swaggerLa negra tiene tumbao tiene tumbao tiene tumbao

And she doesn't walk sideways (x3)Y no camina de lao (x3)
The black woman has swagger oh swaggerLa negra tiene tumbao ay tumbao

never walks sideways (x2)nunca camina de lao(x2)

has swagger (x2)tiene tumbao (x2)
walk straight, doesn't walk sidewaysanda derechito no camina de lao
has swagger (x2)tiene tumbao(x2)

When people die (oh my god)Cuando la gente se muere (ay dios mio)
They say she was so good (so good)Se dice que era tan buena (tan buena)
So good when she was aliveTan buena cuando vivía
Like night and day (you think)Como la noche y el dia (tu crees)

Let them come and tell me the truthQue a mi me vengan a decir la verdad
I can't stand any more lies (always the same)No aguanto ya mas mentiras (siempre los mismo)
I enjoy life wellDisfruto bien de la vida
Even taking measures sugarAunque tomando medidas azucar
