La Reina Batata

There was the sweet potato queen
Sitting on a silver plate,
The cook looked at her
And the queen got scared

The queen was trembling with fear,
The cook with his finger,
Yes, no, no, yes
Threatened her in a bad mood

The sweet potato queen thought:
'Now he'll stab me and kill me'
And the cook muttered:
'With this one, I'll keep'

The queen saw from the corner of her eye
That he was sharpening the knife
And she got so scared
That she rolled to the floor and hid

Then from the square came
The youngest girl of the house,
When she was looking for her yo-yo
In a corner she found her

The girl on a tin throne
Put the sweet potato queen
A green tail sprouted
(For the sweet potato queen, not the girl)
And this song ended
