Compa'e Chipuco Lyrics in English Carlos Vives
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Compa'e Chipuco by Carlos Vives from Spanish to English.
Viajando para Fonseca
Traveling to Fonseca
Yo me detuve en Valledupar
I stopped in Valledupar
Viajando para Fonseca
Traveling to Fonseca
Yo me detuve en Valledupar
I stopped in Valledupar
Y allá en la plaza me encontré
And there in the square I met
Con un viejito conversón
An old man who loves to talk
Y al pasar le pregunté
And as I passed by, I asked him
Oiga compa cómo se llama usted
Hey buddy, what's your name?
Y allá en la plaza me encontré
And there in the square I met
Con un viejito conversón
An old man who loves to talk
Y al pasar le pregunté
And as I passed by, I asked him
Oiga compa cómo se llama usted
Hey buddy, what's your name?
Me llaman compa Chipuco
They call me Compae Chipuco
Y vivo a orillas del río Cesar
And I live by the banks of the Cesar River
Me llaman compa Chipuco
They call me Compae Chipuco
Y vivo a orillas del río Cesar
And I live by the banks of the Cesar River
Soy vallenato de verdad
I am a true vallenato*
Tengo las patas bien pintá
I have my legs well painted
Con mi sombrero bien alón
With my wide-brimmed hat
Y para remate me gusta el ron
And to top it off, I like rum
Soy vallenato de verdad
I am a true vallenato
Tengo las patas bien pintá
I have my legs well painted
Con mi sombrero bien alón
With my wide-brimmed hat
Y para remate me gusta el ron
And to top it off, I like rum
Me llaman Compae Chipuco
They call me Compae Chipuco
Y vivo a orillas del Rio Cesar
And I live by the banks of the Cesar River
Me llaman Compae Chipuco
They call me Compae Chipuco
Y vivo a orillas del Rio Cesar
And I live by the banks of the Cesar River
Soy vallenato de verdad
I am a true vallenato
No creo en cuento no creo en nada
I don't believe in stories, I don't believe in anything
Solamente en Pedro Castro
Only in Pedro Castro
Alfonso Lopez y nada más
Alfonso Lopez and nothing else
Soy Vallenato de verdad
I am a true vallenato
No creo en cuento no creo en nada
I don't believe in stories, I don't believe in anything
Solamente en Pedro Castro
Only in Pedro Castro
En Santo Ecce Homo y nada más
In Santo Ecce Homo and nothing else
