La Carcacha [English translation]
La Carcacha [English translation]
One! Two! Three! Four!
People wonder "what's this cloud of smoke
that is choking us?" Nobody knows what it is
An old car comes honking down the street
with the wheels of a tricycle
and the engine the wrong way around
as usual in the corner I'm waiting
his faithfull girlfriend
My friends are making fun of him
They whisper things about him
Jalopy, step by step
don't stop swaying
Jalopy, little by little
don't leave us behind (x2)
Look girls, I don't feel regret
nor do I feel ashamed of my boyfriend
even though he is poor and his car is old
he treats me like a queen, a real man
even though he's got a jalopy
what really matters is that I sit beside him
He is not handsome either
but he is a faithfull boyfriend
Jalopy, step by step
don't stop swaying
Jalopy, little by little
don't leave us behind (x2)
Everybody, hands up in the air
and singing:
Jalopy, step by step
don't stop swaying
Jalopy, little by little
don't leave us behind
