Bad faith, bad faith, bad faith
Craziness!
Ah-ay! I was sleeping in my delicious bed
And they call me for this tremendous track
And now I'm going to iron the saxophones
And puiri, papidodo, piudodo
The cow, moo!
The same cow, moo!
The cow, moo!
The same cow
I have a dairy cow, a real cow
I won't sell her or trade her if you want to buy her
The cow, moo!
The same cow, moo!
The cow, moo!
The same cow
I get trouble in the neighborhood when I keep her hidden
The milk that that cow gives is really pure, for real
The cow, moo!
The same cow, moo!
The cow, moo!
The same cow
And mambo!
Puiri, puiri, papodido
Poro, poporori, pudi, papodido, dido
Bet you don't know what I tell her when I'm milking my cow
Bet you can't guess
Nothing, nothing, nothing!
Trumpet!
Pa, pa, pa, pa para riduda
Saxophones!
Puiri, puiri, papidodo, piudodo
Bad faith, bad faith
The cow, moo!
The same cow, moo!
The cow, moo!
The same cow
I get trouble in the neighborhood when I keep her hidden
All the guys on the corner want to milk her
The cow, moo!
The same cow, moo!
The cow, moo!
The same cow
My neighbor's bull is in love with my cow
But come here you, and what's your plan?
Oh miss! come over here
The cow, moo!
The same cow, moo!, Labijo go ahead
The cow, moo!
The same cow, hey let's go!
Puiri, puiri, puiri, puiri
Papa, puiri, puiri, puiri, crank it up
Puiri, puiri, puiri, puiri
Trumpet!
Pao, puio, pao, puio, pao
Esteban's saxophone!
Puiri, puiri, puiri, puiri
The cow, moo!
The same cow, moo!
The cow, moo!
The same cow
I get trouble in the neighborhood when I keep her hidden
That the neighbors don't sleep when she's riled up
The cow, moo!
The same cow, moo!

SONG MEANING

La Vaca explodes with the joyful chaos of a Caribbean street party. Behind the playful moo’s, blaring horns and tongue-twisting scat syllables, the singer proudly presents his super-cow: a real, milk-giving champion that he refuses to sell or trade. Every verse is a comic snapshot of neighborhood life, where curious kids, nosy neighbors and even the next-door bull all want a piece of this famous bovine. The music itself mirrors the story – fast merengue rhythms, shouted call-and-response and sudden instrumental breaks make you feel like you are right in the middle of the block, laughing and dancing along.

Beneath the humor, the song winks at double meanings. The cow's “pure” milk, the struggle to keep others from “milking” her, and the bull’s romantic interest can all be heard as cheeky innuendos about jealousy and protecting what you love. Whether you take the lyrics literally or catch the sly subtext, La Vaca is ultimately about pride, ownership and neighborhood gossip, all delivered with irresistible tropical energy that dares you not to shout “¡Muuuu!” by the final chorus.
