La flaca [English translation]

During my lifetime I met a woman,

just like the skinny one,

coral black from La Habana,

a spectacular "mulatta"

One-hundred pounds of skin and bones,

forty kilos of salsa

and two suns on her face,

that speak without words,

that speak without words.

The Skinny Woman sleeps all day,

she says that's how you trick hunger,

when night falls,

she comes out to dance a la Tasca

and dance and dance,

and drink and drink

one beer after the other,

but she never puts on weight,

but she never puts on weight

for a kiss from The Skinny Woman.

I would give anything

for a kiss from her

even if it were only one

I would give anything

for a kiss from The Skinny Woman.

for one of her kisses,

even if it were only one

Even if it were only one.

I wet my white sheets

as the song says

remembering the caresses

that she gave me the first day

I go crazy with the desire

to sleep by her side

Because, my God, this woman (flaca)

makes me crazy!

She has made me crazy!

For a kiss from The Skinny Woman (la flaca)

I would give anything

for a kiss from her,

even if it were only one

For a kiss from The Skinny Woman (la flaca)

I would give anything

for a kiss from her,

even if it were only one

even if it were only one

even if it were only one

even if it were only one

even if it were only one

even if it were only one

even if it were only one
