Los Anticuarios
Los Payos
The Antique Dealers
Those old hard coins
That caused so much talk in Cadiz
People took them
By the seashore
It's the funniest thing
I've ever seen in my life
Half of Cadiz was there
With shovels
And so was my mother-in-law
Although she was already half senile
With her nails and hair
I saw her digging
Seven days in a row
Without rest
The beach was
Like a fair
Good Lord
What misery!
Some found
More than eighty coins
However, others
Didn't find any
My mother-in-law, as I said
Was there for a week
Digging at night
During the day and in the morning
She lost her nails and hair
- Although she had very little
And instead of finding the coins
She caught pneumonia
And in the field of mallows
She's been digging
Since that day
My mother-in-law, as I said
Was there for a week
Digging at night
During the day and in the morning
She lost her nails and hair
- Although she had very little
And instead of finding the coins
She caught pneumonia
And in the field of mallows
She's been digging
Since that day
