El Vendedor Que No Fía
Tito Rojas
The Untrustworthy Seller
Seller looks over there
Says a lady
How much for the pineapples
And the good corn
He sold to her on credit
And didn't know
That he was selling on credit
His merchandise, his merchandise
She told him, buddy
I would buy from you
But I don't have cash
Until tomorrow
He replied, lady
I would give you credit
But I have to settle accounts
In the morning, in the morning
(Sorry, lady, but I can't give you credit)
Listen, but I can't give you credit
I have to settle accounts with the boss
(Sorry, lady, but I can't give you credit)
The quenepa, the green pineapple
And the red apple, lady
(Sorry, lady, but I can't give you credit)
Seller looks over there
Says a girl
How much for the pineapples
(Sorry, lady, but I can't give you credit)
(Sorry, lady, but I can't give you credit)
And he sold to her on credit
And didn't know
That he was selling on credit
His merchandise
(Sorry, lady, but I can't give you credit)
And since you haven't paid me
I can't keep selling on credit
(Sorry, lady, but I can't give you credit)
And you don't even ask me, listen seller
How much do I owe you? How much money?
Well, but here comes the town crier
But from the real rooster
Well, I come from the edge
(Sorry, lady, but I can't give you credit)
Listen, I can't give you credit
I have to settle accounts
With the boss, lady
(Sorry, lady, but I can't give you credit)
I bring you the quenepa, the green pineapple
And the red apple, lady
(Sorry, lady, but I can't give you credit)
Ma'am, what I do
To earn my beans
(Sorry, lady, but I can't give you credit)
