Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Vamonos pal monte pal monte pa huarachar
vamonos pal monte que el monte me gusta mas)
(vamonos pal monte pal monte pa huarachar
vamonos pal monte que el monte me gusta mas)
(vamonos pal monte pal monte pa huarachar
vamonos pal monte que el monte me gusta mas)
(vamonos pal monte pal monte pa huarachar
vamonos pal monte que el monte me gusta mas)
este tipo esta travieso y aunque eso no me
importa a mi, paro para todo todo lado sigo
contento y feliz
(vamonos pal monte pal monte pa huarachar
vamonos pal monte que el monte me gusta mas)
aqui en las grandes ciudades solo se respira el rio
alla en el monte mio hay espacio y vacilon
(vamonos pal monte pal monte pa huarachar
vamonos pal monte que el monte me gusta mas)
dicen que poquito a poco se acerca la depresion
si goza santiaguito lo tumba en l vacilo vacilon
(vamonos pal monte pal monte pa huarachar vamonos
pal monte que el monte me gusta mas)
(para el monte me voy porque en monte no estoy)
(para el monte me voy porque en monte no estoy)




(para el monte me voy porque en monte no estoy)
(para el monte me voy porque en monte no estoy)
