Mamá
Caballo Dorado Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mamá no vayas a olvidar
que hoy me voy a ir a bailar,
mamá tampoco se te vaya a olvidar
dejarme el carro fugaz en el garage.

Mamá no vayas a pensar
que hoy me voy a portar mal,
mamá tampoco me vayas a esperar

por que esta noche es cuando la voy a enamorar.

Si tu ya quieres que me case
y me vaya de la casa
facilitame las cosas
mami dame una morralla,
que estoy loco por sus besos,
por que está linda su cara
que tan solo de mirarla me enamoro.
(se repite)

Mamá no me vayas a espiar,
algún dia la conocerás.
Recuerda como batallo mi papá
cuando saliste con el por primera vez a bailar.

Si tu ya quieres que me case
y me vaya de la casa
facilitame las cosas
mami dame una morralla,
que estoy loco por sus besos,
por que está linda su cara
que tan solo de mirarla me enamoro.
(se repite)

Mamá no vayas a olvidar
que hoy me voy a ir a bailar,
mamá tampoco se te vaya a olvidar
dejarme el carro fugaz en el garage,

dejarme el carro fugaz en el garage,
dejarme el carro fugaz en el garage.
