Quiero a Mi Pueblo
Ismael Rivera
I Want to Go to My Hometown
I want to go to my hometown
Down there for the holidays
Hear mass and carols
Then head out to the street
And treat my friends
With the scraps of the bread
And I know when I do that
I'll cry tears of joy
Glory to the Lord, glory to the Lord
Glory in the highest
Congratulations, congratulations
May you have a thousand blessings
Glory to the Lord, glory to the Lord
Glory in the highest
Congratulations, congratulations
May you have a thousand blessings
I want to go to my hometown
Down there for the holidays
Visit the little shops
Eat a lot of fried pork
Drink some rum and coconut
Get myself a good buzz
And when the hangover hits
I'll cry tears of joy
I want to go to my hometown
Down there for the holidays
Hear mass and carols
Then head out to the street
Then I'll dance to the beat of Diana
With tuba and trumpet
I know that at the end of the party
I'll cry tears of joy
