Lola's Mambo Lyrics in English Juan Luis Guerra , Chris Botti
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Lola's Mambo by Juan Luis Guerra from Spanish to English.
Yo no sé lo que está pasando
I don't know what's happening
Pero la cosa pinta color de hormiga caballero
But the thing looks like an ant, sir
Yo no sé lo que está pasando
I don't know what's happening
Pero el milenio grita y se derrite sobre el suelo
But the millennium screams and melts on the ground
Te digo, que la cosa está dura
I tell you, things are tough
Te digo, que la cosa no está fácil
I tell you, things are not easy
Te digo, que el peaje se acerca
I tell you, the toll is approaching
Y los cielos sólo esperan tu respuesta
And the heavens only await your response
Te digo, que la cosa está ñona
I tell you, things are rough
Y yo te digo, que la cosa se aprieta
And I tell you, things are tightening
Te digo, como ley de aranceles
I tell you, like a tariff law
Anda mi panita ve y arregla tus papeles
Go, my friend, and fix your papers
Yo no sé lo que está pasando
I don't know what's happening
Pero las decisiones hay que tomarlas cada día
But decisions must be made every day
No importa como lo digas
No matter how you say it
El bateador sin el madero no llega a Grandes Ligas
The batter without the bat doesn't make it to the Major Leagues
Te digo, que la cosa está dura
I tell you, things are tough
Te digo, que la cosa no está fácil
I tell you, things are not easy
Te digo, que el peaje se acerca
I tell you, the toll is approaching
Y los cielos sólo esperan tu respuesta
And the heavens only await your response
Te digo, que la cosa está ñona
I tell you, things are rough
Y yo te digo, que la cosa se aprieta
And I tell you, things are tightening
Te digo, como ley de aranceles
I tell you, like a tariff law
Anda mi panita ve y arregla tus papeles
Go, my friend, and fix your papers
Arregla los papeles
Fix your papers
Pero te digo que más vale tarde que nunca
But I tell you, better late than never
Las decisiones se toman juntas
Decisions are made together
Que son los tiempos y son las leyes
These are the times and these are the laws
Anda mi panita ve y arregla tus papeles
Go, my friend, and fix your papers
Yo te digo, te digo
I tell you, I tell you
Que nadie sabe la hora y el día
That no one knows the hour and the day
Para el que quiere todo se puede
For those who want, everything is possible
Anda mi panita ve y arregla tus papeles
Go, my friend, and fix your papers
Arregla los papeles, ojoye!
Fix your papers, hey!
Arregla los papeles
Fix your papers
Te digo, que la cosa está dura
I tell you, things are tough
Te digo, que la cosa no está fácil
I tell you, things are not easy
Te digo, que el peaje se acerca
I tell you, the toll is approaching
Y los cielos sólo esperan tu respuesta
And the heavens only await your response
Te digo, que la cosa está ñona
I tell you, things are rough
Y yo te digo, y que la cosa se aprieta
And I tell you, things are tightening
Te digo, como ley de aranceles
I tell you, like a tariff law
Anda mi panita ve y arregla tus papeles
Go, my friend, and fix your papers
Te digo, te digo, arregla los papeles
I tell you, I tell you, fix your papers
Te digo, te digo, arregla los papeles
I tell you, I tell you, fix your papers
Te digo, te digo, arregla los papeles
I tell you, I tell you, fix your papers
Pero te digo, te digo, arregla los papeles
But I tell you, I tell you, fix your papers
Te digo, te digo, arregla los papeles
I tell you, I tell you, fix your papers
Te digo, te digo, arregla los papeles
I tell you, I tell you, fix your papers
