Los Socios Del Ritmo
Medley of the Carts
I have a very flashy cart, when I go to the town it always gets stuck
Now my skinny oxen don't want to pull, I don't have pasture or anything to buy
Sometimes we take a long time to return and then Enriqueta starts to get angry
Don't get mad old lady, don't get mad queta, look how the oxen pull the cart
(Don't get mad old man, don't get mad anymore, I know that one day we will arrive)
Come on lazy oxen, now you have to be, because back at the ranch they have to eat
I have a very flashy cart, when I go to the town it always gets stuck
Now my skinny oxen don't want to pull, I don't have pasture or anything to buy
Sometimes we take a long time to return and then Enriqueta starts to get angry
Don't get mad old lady, don't get mad queta, look how the oxen pull the cart
(Don't get mad old man, don't get mad anymore, I know that one day we will arrive)
Come on lazy oxen, now you have to be, because back at the ranch they have to eat
I'll take you in my cart little old lady, I'll take you in my cart my dear
If it wasn't for the fact that you're a bit senile, I would take you walking on the ground
It's a hassle with this Enriqueta when I take her towards the city
Come on old lady, get on the cart, if you don't get on I'll leave you
(No, no, no, don't get desperate, nor, nor, nor, don't rush)
The oxen pull the cart wherever we go
The oxen pull the cart wherever we go
We both bounce like a ball perched on the cart
My old woman bounces and bounces, and I enjoy it full of excitement
But on the way back my old lady gets angry because the oxen don't want to pull
And then, then she grabs the goad and starts yelling at the oxen
(No, no, no, don't get desperate, nor, nor, nor, don't rush)
The oxen pull the cart wherever we go
The oxen pull the cart wherever we go
I no longer have a cart, I no longer have even a cart
My ox died and my queta left me
All this happened to me for fooling around
Why, because I met a flirt who told my Enriqueta that I was her adoration
Because after that party they stole my cart and also the cart
I no longer have a cart, I no longer have even a cart
My ox died and my queta left me
All this happened to me for fooling around
Why, because I met a flirt who told my Enriqueta that I was her adoration
Because after that party they stole my cart and also the cart
Now I won't hear anymore
(Don't get mad my little old man)
Because I was left with nothing
(You were left very lonely)
Now I won't hear anymore
(No, no, no, don't get desperate)
Oh! Because I was left with nothing
(Nor, nor, nor, don't rush)
