Una Mulata en la Habana
Adalberto Alvarez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que me robo el corazón.
Me hace tomar el avión
Cada dos o tres semanas.
Siempre me quedo con ganas
Cuando vengo de regreso.
Después del ultimo beso
Volveré a soñar otra vez
Con su sonrisa de primavera,
Su caminar entre las palmeras
Y su forma de amar que me llena.
La Habana tiene un misterio
Que no me puedo explicar:
Allí me voy a casar
Te lo aseguro a ti que yo vuelvo.
Una mulata cubana
Me ha robado el corazón
Y ya no tomo el avión
Porque me quedo en La Habana.
Hay una mulata en la Habana
que me gusta, que le tengo ganas.
Busca tu mulata
pa'que patees la lata
busca tu mulata
