El Barbero
Gaiteros de Pillopo
The Barber
For the street Play it, in my neighborhood El Empedrao, where I was born
Let's go!
(In my neighborhood El Empedrao)
(Parish of Santa Lucía)
(There was a barbershop)
(That was very popular)
They washed you in a basin
The chair reclined
(And Luís El Perro shaved)
(To the tune of a parakeet) Oh!
Had geese and ducks
Ten pigeons and hens
Three parrots in the kitchen
Two dogs and four cats
People passed through the patio
To sit on the benches
They played raffle and doublets
And exchanged information
(In my neighborhood El Empedrao)
(Parish of Santa Lucía)
(There was a barbershop)
(That was very popular)
They washed you in a basin
The chair reclined
(And Luís El Perro shaved)
(To the tune of a parakeet)
(And Luís El Perro shaved)
(To the tune of a parakeet) Ah!
Not even the barber of Seville
The maneto and tagarín
Gave themselves that air
Of shaving with a razor
Even Jesus Delgado
From Calle Soledad
Saw that way
Of Luís El Perro, amazed
(In my neighborhood El Empedrao)
(Parish of Santa Lucía)
(There was a barbershop)
(That was very popular)
They washed you in a basin
The chair reclined
(And Luís El Perro shaved)
(To the tune of a parakeet)
(And Luís El Perro shaved)
(To the tune of a parakeet)
Quietly and with the brush
American style with a tuft
With talcum powder and brilliantine
It was worth three simple reales
From Monte Claro and Ziruma
They came looking for Luís
And he made them happy
A shaved head with a calabash
(In my neighborhood El Empedrao)
(Parish of Santa Lucía)
(There was a barbershop)
(That was very popular)
They washed you in a basin
The chair reclined
(And Luís El Perro shaved)
(To the tune of a parakeet)
(And Luís El Perro shaved)
(To the tune of a parakeet)
Hey, Ramón Banguera!
And when Luís shaved you
He pleased you in everything
Just like Zacarías
Who even sprayed perfume on you
The only thing that happened
With the hand machine
That my brother broke it
And shaved you roughly
(In my neighborhood El Empedrao)
(Parish of Santa Lucía)
Oh, what pain when he cut you!
(There was a barbershop)
(That was very popular)
Pass me the alcohol
Behind the ears
(And Luís El Perro shaved)
(To the tune of a parakeet)
They washed you in a basin
(In my neighborhood El Empedrao)
(Parish of Santa Lucía)
(There was a barbershop)
(That was very popular)
They washed you in a basin
The chair reclined
(And Luís El Perro shaved)
(To the tune of a parakeet)
