Al Son Del Tambor
Ocobamba
To the Beat of the Drum
This rumba dedicated to a very classy gypsy
Who learned in the neighborhood of grace and how to do the fan
This rumba that I sing, I sing it with love
So that everyone knows the gift he left behind.
With the sound of a table and sitting on a chair
I don't know how to sing the rumba like Pescadilla used to.
And to the beat of the drum dancing this rumba
Playing the drum was moving her hips [2x]
And this rumba has strength and shines as bright as the sun
No one will play the rumba like Antonio did
He sang in a thousand languages and a very Catalan English
With his art, the gypsies couldn't resist.
For his war dance and the shirts were torn
I can't sing the rumba like Pescadilla used to.
And to the beat of the drum dancing this rumba
Playing the drum was moving her hips [2x]
For his war dance and the shirts were torn
I can't sing the rumba like Pescadilla used to.
And to the beat of the drum dancing this rumba
Playing the drum was moving her hips [2x]
And the gypsies are blending in to the sound of this rich rumba.
