Gentlemen, I'm going to tell you
What happened to Neptolio
In the mouth of Atrato, gentlemen
They held a grand wake for him

For being a party animal, gentlemen
He drowned his clarinet

That in the mouth of Atrato, Neptolio
Was going to be eaten by a Sarda

In Turbo they mourn him
In Beté they are crying for him

In Beté they are crying for him
But Neptolio is not dead, gentlemen
I saw him in Quibdó playing
But Neptolio is not dead, gentlemen
I saw him in Quibdó playing
(That's what happened to Neptolio, gentlemen, for being a party animal)
That's what happened to Neptolio, gentlemen, for being a party animal
(That's what happened to Neptolio, gentlemen, for being a party animal)
Oh Neptolio, damn, he was lost
He thought he was dead and here a mess was stirred
(That's what happened to Neptolio, gentlemen, for being a party animal)
That's what happened to Neptolio for being a wild one
(That's what happened to Neptolio, gentlemen, for being a party animal)
Neptolio, Neptolito, what a party animal
You're the life of the party in the whole region
(Oh tell me why Neptolio they held a grand wake for you)
And people cried for him, how they love you Neptolio
(Oh tell me why Neptolio they held a grand wake for you)
What sadness they expressed, everyone at the wake
(Oh tell me why Neptolio they held a grand wake for you)
And when they saw he was alive, a huge celebration broke out
(Oh tell me why Neptolio they held a grand wake for you)
Chirimía and aguardiente... And the people started dancing
