Parrandeando Lyrics in English by Los Tucanes de Tijuana
Parrandeando comes from 'parranda', a lively party or night out with friends, usually full of music and drinks. The '-ando' ending turns it into a continuous action, describing someone constantly out celebrating rather than attending just one party.
In the song, the artist repeats "Parrandeando me paso la vida" ("Partying I spend my life") and "Parrandeando me siento feliz" ("Partying I feel happy"), painting partying as an entire lifestyle, not a single event.
Get ready to party with Los Tucanes de Tijuana's "Parrandeando"! This song is all about living life to the fullest, enjoying good times, and celebrating with friends and family. The singer makes it clear that his wallet is his sponsor, saying "Mi cartera es quien me patrocina / Donde llego responde por mí" [My wallet is my sponsor / Wherever I go, it answers for me]. He loves a good party, calling them his "adoration" and even his "medicina" [medicine] when he's feeling down. If problems come his way, he drowns them "con whisky en las rocas" [with whiskey on the rocks] because, for him, being happy is what matters most.
Even though he loves to party, the singer also values his roots and his family, stating "Pero mi más grande bendición / Siempre ha sido y será mi familia" [But my greatest blessing / Always has been and always will be my family]. He's a hard worker from Juanacatlán, Jalisco, and his success allows him to celebrate. He's Juan Carlos Ruvalcaba, and he's going to keep the party going, even "aunque no haya motivos" [even if there are no reasons]! It's a fun, upbeat anthem for anyone who loves to celebrate life.
