Translation

Voy a comprar un carro Ford

I'm going to buy a Ford car

Voy a comprar un carro Ford

I'm going to buy a Ford car

Que vuele en la carretera, y lo pongo en dirección

That flies on the road, and I'll put it in the direction

Y lo pongo en dirección del Valle pa' Villanueva

And I'll put it in the direction of the Valley to Villanueva


Como yo no tomo ron, como yo no tomo ron

Since I don't drink rum, since I don't drink rum

Quiero mi trago en monedas

I want my drink in coins

Pa' comprarme un carro Ford

To buy myself a Ford car

Pa' comprarme un carro Ford que vuele en la carretera

To buy myself a Ford car that flies on the road


Y si te lo compro te enseño a manejar

And if I buy it for you, I'll teach you to drive

Toditos los cambios Del Valle a Patillal

All the gears from Valle to Patillal

Y si te lo compro será con llantas nuevas

And if I buy it for you, it will be with new tires

Pa' viajar contento del Valle a Villanueva

To travel happily from Valle to Villanueva


Voy a comprar un carro Ford

I'm going to buy a Ford car

Voy a comprar un carro Ford

I'm going to buy a Ford car

Si te gusta cómo suena la fuerza de su motor

If you like how the force of its engine sounds

A fuerza de su motor que ruge en la carretera

By the force of its engine roaring on the road


Cuando tenga tu atención, cuando tenga tu atención

When I have your attention, when I have your attention

Y me des alguna seña

And you give me a sign

Prenderé mi carro Ford

I'll start my Ford car

Para llevarte mi amor por toditas estas tierras

To take my love to all these lands


Vamos a vivir sabroso

Let's live deliciously


Y si te lo compro te enseño a manejar

And if I buy it for you, I'll teach you to drive

Toditos los cambios Del Valle a Patillal

All the gears from Valle to Patillal

Y si te lo compro será con llantas nuevas

And if I buy it for you, it will be with new tires

Pa' viajar contento del Valle a Villanueva

To travel happily from Valle to Villanueva


Nos vamos juntitos para Venezuela

We're going together to Venezuela

Nos vamos cantando las canciones nuevas

We're singing the new songs

Ven que yo te enseño tú me lo manejas

Come, I'll teach you, you drive it for me

Cuando me dé sueño por la carretera

When sleep overtakes me on the road


Oye se le siente la cabrilla suavecita, ah

Hey, you can feel the smooth rumble, ah
