No Seas Mentiroso

Don't Be a Liar
I got a beautiful sow
With nineteen piglets, ten females
And eight males and one that came out doubtful
The proudest goat, I have her tied up at home
She greets everyone who passes by (jesu) in a military style
And then goes to smoke by the bench in the square
And then goes to smoke by the bench in the square
Listen to me, Tavin, don't be a liar
Hua hua, what you're saying sounds very doubtful
Listen to me, Tavin, don't be a liar, hua hua
What you're saying sounds very doubtful
Gentlemen, I have a cow, that I bought in '38
And always puts a biscuit next to the stake
I have a skinny hen, that I bought in Guallavilla
She climbs on the slats, lays guinea eggs
And go and go so you can see, writing furiously on the typewriter
And go so you can see, writing on the typewriter
Listen to me, Tavin, don't be a liar
Hua hua, what you're saying sounds very doubtful
Listen to me, Tavin, don't be a liar
Hua hua, what you're saying sounds very doubtful
I have an iguana at home, that I brought from Curacao
Listen ma'am, and I lower the heat five days a week
I have a German female dog, that knows how to play the trumpet
I have a big hen, that knows how to milk
And from each rib I take a chop
And from each rib I take a chop and sell them all
Listen to me, Tavin, don't be a liar
Hua hua, what you're saying sounds very doubtful
Listen to me, Tavin, don't be a liar
Hua hua, what you're saying sounds very doubtful
I bought a rooster in Isabela, pride of the henhouse
And it's because he sings a bolero without music and rehearsal
I also have a horse, that I bought in Santa Isabel
He's prettier than a carnation, from tail to snout look
And there's no mare in Puerto Rico that doesn't have a foal from him
And there's no mare in Puerto Rico that doesn't have a foal from him
What a fury, huh?
Listen to me, Tavin, don't be a liar
Hua hua, what you're saying sounds very doubtful
Listen to me, Tavin, don't be a liar
Hua hua, what you're saying sounds very doubtful
God, I'll be a spirit
