Gallo Pinto

(album: Tamale - 2019)

Yo vendo tajaditas (Chicuh-chicuh-chicuh-chicuh)
Y las vendo muy ricas (Chicuh-chicuh-chicuh-chicuh)
Yo halo el cordón (Chicuh-chicuh-chicuh-chicuh)
Y se para el tren (Chicuh-chicuh-chicuh-chicuh)

I got it, got it bad
I know I want it
I'm running like a matador
Blue and white colors burn
Red through my eye skin
Understanding where I'm from

Ay, that's why they call me Frijolito
Arroz en blanco, gallo pinto
My dreams revueltos, casaditos
Not one or other, I can have it all
(Tell me why, tell me why, tell my why)
I can have it all
(Gotta try, gotta try, gotta try)

Niña, serving up your tajaditas
Spread yourself so thin, say it's okay
Cause that's what they want
Voices in your head agree with popular opinion
Look inside yourself and see what happens when you listen

This one's for my mami
This one's for my dad
Gave up everything to give me what they couldn't have
This one's for dreamers
Working through their past
You are not defined by all the things that you don't have

And we gon' make it out fine, yeah
Just say we'll make it out fine, yeah
Giving it my heart and my kindness
'Cause I'm Daniela Andrade

I got it, got it bad
I know I want it
I'm running like a matador
Blue and white colors burn
Red through my eyes, skin
Understanding where I'm from

Ay, that's why they call me Frijolito
Arroz en blanco, gallo pinto
My dreams revueltos, casaditos
Not one or other, I can have it all
(Tell me why, tell me why, tell my why)
I can have it all
(Gotta try, gotta try, gotta try)

Yo vendo tajaditas (Chicuh-chicuh-chicuh-chicuh)
Y las vendo muy ricas (Chicuh-chicuh-chicuh-chicuh)
Yo halo el cordón (Chicuh-chicuh-chicuh-chicuh)
Y se para el tren
Y se para el tren
Y se para el tren
Y se para el tren
Y se para el tren (Chicuh-chicuh-chicuh-chicuh)
