Agua, Azucarillos y Aguardiente

Federico Chueca Federico Chueca

Water, Sugar and Brandy

Girls (playing in a circle)
So many white dresses
So much chatter
And the pot on the fire

With just water
Arrión, pull the cord
Cord from Italy
Where will you go, my love
That I won't go?

Nannies
The ladies send us
To Recoletos with the babies

Boy I want water
Girl and I want wafers
Nanny, what do you want?
Boy I want sugar

So they can enjoy the fresh air
In the gardens
Iarza and olé

Nanny, but ma'am why do you hit him
Mistress because he's very naughty
Boy, Aunt Galician

They ask us to always go
Behind them
And never leave
Them

But if a guy talks to us
One of those who catch our eye
The little ones are left alone
In the end

Mistresses (cooing)
Ah!, Ah!, Ah!, Ah!

Girls
Who will say that the coal girls
Who will say the coal ones
Who will say that I am married
Who will say that I have love?

Now the widow lady
Now she wants to get married
With the count, count of goat
Count of goat will take her away

Nannies (cooing)
Ah!, Ah!, Ah!, Ah!

Nurses
They call us nannies
And it's true
Whoever invented it had talent
Because it's well known, and not just now
That the one who serves us is the lady

When will I go
To my place
That the farruco calls me
When will it be?
When will I go?
How much I want to see him!

When the boy in the middle of the night
Gets angry and cries without stopping
We don't wake up
If they don't come to call us

When will I go!
To my place
That the farruco sends me to call
When will it be?
When will I go?
How much I want to see him!

Nannies and nurses
The ladies send us
To Recoletos with the babies

Boy I want to run
Another I want to jump
Nanny, what do you want?
Boy I want to pee

They ask us to always go
Behind them
And never leave
Them

But if a guy talks to us
One of those who catch our eye
The little ones are left alone
In the end

Girls
So many white dresses
So much chatter
And the pot on the fire
With just water

Nannies and nurses
Taking the children
Let's go home
Because it's already time
And I fear the scolding
From the lady let's go
