La Refinera

The Refinery

La Refinera

She was tall and very beautiful with a dark faceEra alta y muy bella de cara morena
And because of a bad nickname they called her the refineryY por mal apodo le decian la refinera
She was desired like black goldEra codiciada como el oro negro
And the oil workers were dying for herY los petroleros se morian por ella

Refinery, refinery from my GuanajuatoRefinera, refinera de allá de mi Guanajuato
With a mouth tasting like strawberry and eyes like a catCon boca sabor de fresa y ojos como de gato
Salmantina, Salmantina, Salamanca GuanajuatoSalmantina, Salmantina, Salamanca Guanajuato
Enjoy her now while you can, you'll pay for it laterGozala ahora que puedes, ya la pagaras al rato

Oil fields of coastal landsCampos petroleros de tierras costeñas
A play of strands illuminated her lovesJuego de mechones alumbraron sus amores
Her perfume was like something from heavenEra su perfume como algo del cielo
Like that oil that springs from the groundComo ese petroleo que brota del suelo

She reached Altamira to Mata RedondaLlego hasta Altamira a Mata Redonda
Jumped to Poza Rica and went to CoatzacoalcosBrinco a Poza Rica y se fue a Coatzacoalcos

She broke hearts arriving in TabascoRompió corazones llegando a Tabasco
