Translation

En un baile pesetero que había donde Maria la luz

At a flashy dance where Maria was the light

Quise serrucha una vieja que tenía las patas en cruz

I wanted to dance with an old lady who had her legs crossed

Ella me miro a los ojos como que me hiba a pegar y me dijo que la soltara que ella

She looked me in the eyes as if she was going to hit me and told me to let her go because she

Así no sabía bailar, me dijo que considerara que ella estaba muy enchoncla y como

didn't know how to dance like that, she said to consider that she was very pregnant and like

Perro viejo no me quise hecha pa atrás

an old dog, I didn't want to step back

Y el bolsillo del dinero hay se lo rastrille en el pan

And the money in my pocket, I swiped it in the bread


Cuando sintio que yo si tenía mi plata ella descubrio sus patas y empezamos a monta

When she felt that I indeed had money, she revealed her legs, and we started to dance

Cuando le dije que ya quería marcharme ella por abrazarme me quería era ahorca

When I said I wanted to leave, she, instead of hugging me, wanted to strangle me

Por eso tengo por costumbre cuando quiero buscar mujer este bolsillo delantero

That's why, when I want to find a woman, I fill this front pocket

Lo relleno, aunque con papel

Even with paper

Para que cuando sienta el bulto hay se empiece a desguañaña

So that when she feels the lump, it starts to unfold

Y si es que nació torcido hay se busque pa enderezar

And if it's born twisted, she looks for a way to straighten it

Cuando le doy su mano de serrucho yo la empujo y empezamos a junta

When I give her my sawing hand, I push her, and we start to join

Ella me dice por poquito me preñas yo le doy su jugeña para no irlo a matar

She says, "I almost got pregnant," and I give her her potion so as not to kill it


Pero cuando yo quise se lo rastrille en el pan, se lo rastrille en el pan veave

But when I wanted to, I swiped it in the bread, I swiped it in the bread, see?

El bolsillo delantero se lo rastrille en el pan

The front pocket, I swiped it in the bread

Ay pan pandero pan cosa rica se lo rastrille en el pan

Oh, bread, baker's bread, I swiped it in the bread

Ay senti que algo le brincaba en su interior en su interior se lo rastrille en el pan

Oh, I felt something jumping inside, in its interior, I swiped it in the bread


Como telefono ocupado llamando a quiquirillo quiquirillo se lo rastrille en el pan

Like a busy telephone calling Quiquirillo, Quiquirillo, I swiped it in the bread

El bulto cada vez subia se lo rastrille en el pan

The lump kept rising, I swiped it in the bread

Y ella alegre repetia pan pan pananadero se lo rastrille en el pan

And happily, she repeated, "Bread, bread, baker, I swiped it in the bread"

Pero hasta cuando yo quise se lo rastrille en el pan se lo rastrille en el pan

But until when I wanted to, I swiped it in the bread, I swiped it in the bread

Cosa buena y ella alegre repetia pan pan panadero se lo rastrille en el pan

Good thing, and happily, she repeated, "Bread, bread, baker, I swiped it in the bread"

Que rico esta ese pancito se lo rastrille en el pan ese bulto

How tasty that little bread is, I swiped it in the bread, that lump

Me gusta a mi mucahachito se lo rastrille en el pan ay que rico esta ese bultico

I like it, my little boy, I swiped it in the bread, oh, how tasty that little lump is

Papito se lo rastrille en el pan

Daddy, I swiped it in the bread

Y el bulto cada vez subia se lo rastrille en el pan se movio

And the lump kept rising, I swiped it in the bread, it moved

Se movia la corrompida se lo rastrille en el pan y el le decía se lo rastrille en el pan

The corrupt one moved, I swiped it in the bread, and he told her, I swiped it in the bread

No bailaba conmigo pero apena sintió el bulto de papel

She didn't dance with me, but as soon as she felt the lump of paper

Que no era papel si no era ropa bajaba, subía, se agachaba

That it wasn't paper but clothes, she lowered, raised, bent down

Se ubicaba, se hacia pa un lado, se hacia pa el otro se lo rastrille en el pan

She positioned herself, leaned to one side, leaned to the other, I swiped it in the bread
