Dicen que el vicio asesino, acaba con los humanos
They say that the murderous vice kills humans
Que me traigan más tequila, y al rato todos pagamos
Let them bring me more tequila, and after a while we all pay
Para que me cuido tanto, si de este mundo nos vamos
Why do I take care of myself so much, if we leave this world
Que me traigan un mariachi, y un conjunto norteño
Bring me a mariachi, and a northern group
Cantinero no te rajes, ni digas que tienes sueño
Bartender, don't give up, don't even say you're sleepy
Me gusta ver que amanezca, dice sonriendo un norteño
I like to see the dawn, says a northerner smiling
Yo quiero vivir tomando, no como aquel rico pobre
I want to live drinking, not like that rich poor man
Que cuida mucho su lana, muy codo y no gasta el cobre
That he takes great care of his wool, very carefully and does not waste copper
Y el día que muera por algo, lo entierran pa' que no estorbe
And the day he dies for something, they bury him so that he doesn't get in the way
Traigan botellas de vino, cerveza de la mejor
Bring bottles of wine, the best beer
Quiero gozar de lo bueno, mujeres al por mayor
I want to enjoy the good, wholesale women
El dinero hay que gastarlo, metalizado no estoy
Money has to be spent, I'm not metallic
A que vienes a este mundo, si no se viene a gozar
Why do you come to this world, if you don't come to enjoy
Dinero nunca te llevas, en que lo vas a gastar
You never take money with you, what are you going to spend it on?
Interpreta mi silencio, por puños va a derrochar
Interpret my silence, by fists he will waste
Yo quiero vivir tomando, no como aquel rico pobre
I want to live drinking, not like that rich poor man
Que cuida mucho su lana, muy codo y no gasta el cobre
That he takes great care of his wool, very carefully and does not waste copper
Y el día que muera por algo, lo entierran pa' que no estorbe
And the day he dies for something, they bury him so that he doesn't get in the way
