Negro Gato [English translation]

Black cat

I'm a black creepy cat

And this life of mine is really bitter

Only from a roof others I defy

I am a black cat!

My sad story I will tell you

And after hearing it I know you will cry

I haven't known what a good dish is in a while

I am a black cat!

Seven lives I have to live

Seven chances I have to win

But if I don't eat, I end up in a pit

I am a black cat!

One day on the hill, poor me

They searched my skin

To make a tambourine

Terrified I'd ran into the wood

I am a black cat!
