These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
En Tijuana, tres noches por semana,
In Tijuana, three nights a week,
Se trabajaba en México la nuit
They worked in Mexico la nuit
'Qui'hubo, señor? Me llamo Viridía na
'Who was there, sir? My name is Viridía na
Y me apellido veinticinco mil'
And my last name is twenty-five thousand'
Yo no buscaba amores mercenarios
I was not looking for mercenary loves
Y ella no era la venus de Buñuel,
And she was not the Venus of Buñuel,
Pero el tequila de los solitarios
But the tequila of the lonely
Sabe mejor contigo, mademoiselle
It tastes better with you, mademoiselle
Y dos rondas más tarde la besaba
And two rounds later she was kissing her
Y tres besos después me convenció,
And three kisses later she convinced me
Y en un meublé por horas que alquilaba
And in a furniture by the hour that she rented
Ahorita les diré lo que pasó
Now I'll tell you what happened
Tantas cosas me dió que no me daban,
So many things she gave me that they didn't give me,
Tantas caricias casi de verdad,
So many caresses almost for real,
Que a mí se me olvidó que trabajaba
That I forgot that she worked
Y ella no se acordó de trabajar
And she didn't remember to work
Por eso, sin faltar una semana,
Therefore, without missing a week,
Cuando me ven entrar al cabaré
When they see me enter the cabaret
Los mariachis, mirando a Viridía na,
The mariachis, looking at Viridíana,
Le cantan 'y volver, volver, volver'
They sing to him 'and come back, come back, come back'
Y, aunque en mi cumpleaños dé una cena
And, although on my birthday I give a dinner
Y no vengan mis hijos a cenar,
And my children do not come to dinner,
Con ella cada noche es Nochebuena
With her every night is Christmas Eve
Y nunca se termina el carnaval
And the carnival never ends
Porque no hay bajo la luna mexicana
Because there is no under the Mexican moon
Mejor menú para un perro andaluz
Best menu for an Andalusian dog
Ni manos que hagan como Viridía na
No hands that do like Viridía na
La tarta de manzana de amour fou
The apple tart of amour fou
Con el corrido de la bella Malinche
With the corrido of the beautiful Malinche
Y el pinche gachupín
And the fucking gachupin
Que viva México la nuit! Que sí
Long live Mexico la nuit! yes
(Mais oui)
(More oui)
