Clodomiro El Ñajo

In the neighborhood La Reinaga at the end of that shortcut
lives Clodomiro Artiaga who they call 'The Ñajo'
Clodomiro is centenarian as you well know
from the poorly paid caretaker of Cleto Urrós' pharmacy
from the poorly paid caretaker of Cleto Urrós' pharmacy

Clodomiro, Clodomiro, Where are you going so serious?
I'm going to watch a little game over by the cemetery.
And in women's affairs, how's life treating you?
I defend myself, I defend myself like a cat on its back

In the well-stocked pharmacy of the mentioned Cleto Urrós
Clodomiro has bretis, he's the 'catchime Boy'
the toothless pharmacist sent him to the street
listen to present friends what happened to Ñajo

- Let's see Clodomiro.
- Yes, boss
- Go to the hardware store and buy me
A pound of nails and a chisel
- A pound of nails and a chisel
- No, no, no, no..... , you have to write it down otherwise you'll forget
- I won't forget boss, I have a little trick so I don't forget
- What's the trick?
- ahhhh, I put a little music
- What do you mean you put music?
- hey
A pound of nails and a chisel (REPEAT 4X)

Clodomiro, Clodomiro, Where are you going so serious?
I'm going to watch a little game over by the cem.....
A pound of nails and a chisel (REPEAT 2X)
And in women's affairs, how's life treating you?
I defend myself, I defend myself like a cat on its back
A pound of nails and a chisel (REPEAT 2X)

Clodomiro as always ran into his buddy Pico'e Liendre
who is a great joker
Clodomiro, out of embarrassment, changed his strategy
and instead of the little song, he just whistled the music
and instead of the little song, he just whistled the music

Clodomiro, Clodomiro, Where are you going so serious?
I'm going to watch a little game over by the cem..... (whistle)
And in women's affairs, how's life treating you?
I defend myself, I defend myself like a cat on its back (whistle)

When Ñajo finally arrived at the hardware store
the clerk asked him, 'How can I help you?'
Clodomiro very calmly with his musical trick
whistled the little song with complete confidence
whistled the little song with complete confidence

- This is what I came to buy, hey, hey! (whistles)
- Okay, okay, but what does that whistle mean? man,
hurry up, I'm very busy
- And what's my fault if you don't understand anything, I'll explain it to you slowly, gently, hey
(whistles)
SILENCE
- Wait a moment, either you tell me what you want, or I'll punch you out of here from the hardware store, silly Ñajo
- Ahh, it's not my fault, look I remember the music well, but I forgot the lyrics

Clodomiro, Clodomiro, What's up, dad! Where are you going so serious?
I'm going to watch a little game over by the cemetery.
And in women's affairs, how's life treating you?
I defend myself, I defend myself like a cat on its belly...
