Cantinero que todo lo sabes
Bartender who knows everything
He venido a pedirte un consejo
I have come to ask you for advice
Pero quiero que tu no me engañes
But I want you not to deceive me
No me digas que no eres parejo
Don't tell me you're not even
Ya tome mil botellas contigo
Already take a thousand bottles with you
Y me has dicho las cosas mas crueles
And you have told me the cruelest things
No me digas que no soy tu amigo
Don't tell me I'm not your friend
Y confiesa tambien que la quieres
And confess also that you love her
Yo no voy a matarme por nadie
I'm not going to kill myself for anyone
Yo mi vida la vivo borracho
I live my life drunk
Si me cambia por ti que bonito
If it changes me for you how nice
Tomaremos los dos a lo macho
We will take both to the macho
Cantinero que todo lo puedes
Bartender that you can do everything
No me tengas respeto ni miedo
Don't have respect or fear for me
Tu me das un balazo si quieres
You give me a bullet if you want
Yo aunque quiera pegarte no puedo
Even if I want to hit you, I can't
Se me doblan las piernas de sueño
My legs bend in sleep
Dame pues otra mugre botella
Give me another grime bottle
Pero dime que tu eres su dueño
But tell me you own it
Y brindemos contentos por ella
And let's happily toast to her
Yo no voy a matarme por nadie
I'm not going to kill myself for anyone
Te la dejo, por dios te la dejo
I leave it to you, for god I leave it
Pero choca tu copa conmigo
But crash your glass with me
Y me das o te doy un consejo
And you give me or I give you advice
