La Cañaguetera
Carlos Vives
The Sugar Cane Cutter
I swear without you
I'm finished
How in love I am
You move away from me (repeat)
Even though you're good
You leave me for being poor
As I am a noble man
I suffer the pains (repeat)
In the sugar cane field
Is my torment (repeat)
Black woman why did you forget me
If I don't forget you (repeat)
Don't let me die
Saying your name
Because sugar cane cutters
Kill men (repeat)
How I suffer, I complain
Your love condemns me
When you cross the border
And go far away (repeat)
What a great sorrow
I lost my mind (repeat)
Because there in the sugar cane field
I left my heart (repeat)
