El Medallón
Alejandro Durán
The Medallion
Ay! I assure you that Don Fidel
Thinking how poor I am
That he may have a lot of money
But he never gives you what I give you
Ay! I give you a seven-story house
And Avianca's best plane
And since I have the pavilion
I give it to you for your building
Ay! Don't lose the idea
Because it's true
I'll fly you to Bogotá
Ay! Don't lose the idea, Rosa María
I'll fly you to Montería
And if you want we can also go
On a honeymoon to Medellín
Ay! Don't lose the idea
Because it's true
I'll fly you to Bogotá
Ay! Don't lose the idea, Rosa María
I'll fly you to Montería
And if you want we can also go
On a honeymoon to Medellín
I'll take you to Riohacha, which is very beautiful
The land of Admiral Padilla
So that your smuggling trips
Reach you from Aruba and La Guajira
From La Guajira I'll bring
The most beautiful pearl necklace
So that it makes the stars envious
When you go out at night with it
From Cartagena I bring you
The medallion that a pirate used
That Blas de Leso stole
To give it to his girls
Since I understand the song of the birds
That are on the banks of the Cesar River
I talk to the king of the orioles
So that he goes to sing at your house
Since I understand the song of the birds
That are on the banks of the Cesar River
I talk to the king of the orioles
So that he goes to sing at your house
Ay! Don't lose the idea, because it's true
I'll fly you to Bogotá
Ay! Don't lose the idea, Rosa María
I'll fly you to Montería
And if you want we can also go
On a honeymoon to Medellín (repeat)
