Marieta

I like it when Marieta dances

Hey, Ibrahim, you sing so well to me
Teresita, I'm going to introduce you to Marieta
That rhythm is really cool
Who doesn't like to dance with Marieta?

I have a bad habit
That even embarrasses me
That I lie down in my bed
And wake up in someone else's bed

I like it when Marieta dances

I like to sing
For Marieta
Hey Marieta
Everyone wants to dance with you
This song is really tasty

Let's introduce Marieta to everyone

Last night I was partying
At a celebrated saint
I smelled codfish
I said: They're cooking there
I exploded singing there
To feel better
And it turns out that the smell
That was happening there
Was because there was a pot boiling
Full of underwear

That black girl really knows how to dance
Teresa, you will soon meet Marieta
Hey Ibrahim
I'm already getting to know her
I'm going to take you to see Marieta

My mom told me
To sing and enjoy
My mom told me
To sing and enjoy
But never to get involved
Hey, Ibrahim
In things that don't concern me

That's why I want to meet Marieta
I know you know her very well
Lies, Teresita
I don't know Marieta
What are you doing, Ibrahim
You fool

My wife got sick
With heart problems in Havana
And the doctor one morning
Came and examined her
He took off her dress
Bloomers too and underskirt
But when I saw that mess
I said: That's not right for me
I don't think my wife's heart
Is so low
Hey, Galbán, let's go see Marieta
Chorus: With Marieta

Hey, I'm going to Holguín
Look how nice it is
Teresita, I'm going to take you
Ibrahim, I wanted to sing
With you even more
Lies, you can dance
With you I want to enjoy
Let's dance the guaracha with Marieta
Let's all, let's all cumbanchar
I'm going to take you to Holguín
Hey, with your little cane, Ibrahim
I'm going to look for
How rich, how good
Marieta, I'm going to look for you
What's wrong with Marieta?
Let's go dance with her
Let's all have fun
