La Mariquita

(album: Mas Canciones - 1990)

Mariquita se llamaba
La que vive junto al rio
Tapame con tu rebozo
Que ya me muero de frio

Si porque me la lleve
Su mama se me enoj&ocaute;
Ahora que me lleve a mi
A ver si me enojo yo

Mariquita dame un beso
Tu mama me lo mando
Mi mama mandara en mi
Pero en mi boquita yo

[La Mariquita (Lady Bug)]

Mariquita she was called
The girl that lives by the river
Cover me with your shawl
Because I am dying of cold

Because I took her away
Her mother was mad at me
Now that she is the one who takes me away
Let's see if I get mad at her

Give me a kiss Mariquita
Your mother has ordered me to do so
My mother can give me orders
But she can't tell me who to kiss
