Viernes
Cantareman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sacúdete el delantal
Sacúdete el delantal
Que se te puede manchar con helado
Tan cotidiano
El veterano se va a enojar
Se va a enojar.
Vuelve
Que pueden verte saltar
Y van a querer llamar
A tu casa
Fin de semana
Nadie te alcanza.
