Here's to me, my Dad, and Chona!

Verse 1

I will tell the story of a famous person

Everyone knows her by the nickname Chona

Her husband says he doesn't know what to do with her anymore

Every day she goes to dances and buys a bottle

The band kicks off with the first song

And Chona immediately looks for a dance partner

People look at her and start to cheer

Bravo bravo Chona, nobody can match you

Chorus 1

And Chona moves, and the people shout out

There's nobody better than Chona for the quebradita

And Chona moves to whatever rhythm they play

She dances everything, never losing her stride

And as we say: Enjoy it!

Verse 2

I will tell the story of a famous person

Everyone knows her by the nickname Chona

Her husband says he doesn't know what to do with her anymore

Every day she goes to dances and buys a bottle

The band kicks off with the first song

And Chona immediately looks for a dance partner

People look at her and start to cheer

Bravo bravo Chona, nobody can match you

Chorus 2

And Chona moves, and the people shout out

There's nobody better than Chona for the quebradita

And Chona moves to whatever rhythm they play

She dances everything, never losing her stride

"Rhythm and flavor, Los Tucanes de Tijuana"

Chorus 2

And Chona moves, and the people shout out

There's nobody better than Chona for the quebradita

And Chona moves to whatever rhythm they play

She dances everything, never losing her stride

quebradita — little break (dance style)

Quebradita literally means "little break," but it's famous as the name of a high-energy Mexican dance style from the 90s.

Imagine a fast-paced partner dance with acrobatic moves and wild backbends—that's the quebradita! The song praises the main character, Chona, as the absolute best at this dance, making her a legend on the dance floor. Learning this word is your ticket to understanding a super fun piece of music history.

Meet Chona, the star of this super fun song by Mexican group Los Tucanes De Tijuana. She is a local legend who absolutely lives to dance. Her husband is at his wit's end, complaining, "ya no se que hacer con ella" [I don't know what to do with her anymore]. Why? Because "Diario va a los bailes y se compra una botella" [Every day she goes to dances and buys a bottle]! She is completely dedicated to having a good time, every single night.

The moment the band starts playing, Chona is on a mission. The song says, "la chona luego luego busca bailador" [Chona immediately looks for a dance partner]. She doesn't waste a single beat. The crowd goes wild for her, shouting, "Bravo bravo Chona nadie te puede igualar" [Bravo, bravo Chona, no one can match you]. She's the undisputed queen of the dance floor, able to dance to any rhythm and never missing a step.
