Translation

como millonaria presumes ahora

As a millionaire, you now boast

esa es la noticia de toda la gente

That's the news for everyone

que ya no te acuerdas cuando te ponias

You don't remember when you used to wear

esas enawotas de 4 por 20

Those cheap outfits, 4 for 20

ahora ya te pones ropa americana que

Now you wear American clothes that

ni las rodillas te tapan

Don't even cover your knees

que ya no te acuerdas en tu triste rancho

You don't remember in your sad ranch

las nawas de rancho de manta que al suelo arrastraban

The rustic blankets dragging on the ground

eres rica pobre que sueña despierta

You're a rich poor dreaming awake

entraste de criada y te sientes patrona

You started as a maid and now feel like a boss

el dia que te corran por tus malas mañas

The day they fire you for your bad habits

seras lo que fuites ranchera pajona

You'll be what you were, a lazy ranch girl

ahora traes collares y pulseras de oro

Now you wear necklaces and gold bracelets

y ya traes luciendo lindas arracadas

And you proudly display beautiful hoop earrings

debias de acordarte lo que tu eras antes

You should remember what you were before

que ni las orejas traias lavadas

Even your ears weren't washed

ahora ya presumes de mucho peinado

Now you boast about elaborate hairstyles

las uñas pintadas los ojos tisnados

Painted nails, darkened eyes

andas presumiendo lo que tu no tienes

You show off what you don't have

y tus hermanitos ya casi encuerados

And your siblings are almost naked

eres rica pobre que sueña despierta

You're a rich poor dreaming awake

entraste de criada y te sientes patrona

You started as a maid and now feel like a boss

el dia que te corran por tus malas mañas

The day they fire you for your bad habits

seras lo que fuites ranchera pajona

You'll be what you were, a lazy ranch girl
