Tu Tranquilo
Jackson Browne David Lindley Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Voy bajando por la carretera
a ver si echo algo pa fuera
pq a veces no hay manera
voy a reventar
Tengo siete mujeres en la cabeza
claro, claro, asa me pesa
como a Joselito
el levante empieza a soplar
Ouohh
cuatro me quieren amarrar
Oouhh
otras dos me quieren apedrear
salamente una me queda
la que va diciendo
a todo el mundo por aha
que es mi colega!
fajate que plan

Y yo me digo;
tu tranquilo
haztelo tranquilo
no le des mas vueltas
tu tranquilo
porque yo me digo
tu tranquilo
no le des mas vueltas
tu tranquilo

Apoyado en una esquina
viendo como pasa la vida
el semaforo esta en verde
y tu te paras a mirar
dime que no te paras
salo para verme la cara
si hay una palabra que odio
la acabas de pronunciar
que forma de hablar es esa
de "a lo mejor..."
he de saber seguro
si va a salvarme tu amoor
podemos ganar
podemos perder
pero aqua no nos volveremos a ver
asa que abre la puerta
y mueve el culo
y arranca ya
que yo me subo


tu tranquilo
haztelo tranquilo
Tu Tranquilo
no le des mas vueltas
tu tranquilo
Voy bajando por la carretera
a ver si echo algo pa fuera
necesito sobretodo una cosa
una amante que no sea religiosa
peligrosa y que me
coma como un bogavante
en salsa rosa
es lo que yo me digo

tu tranquilo
haztelo tranquilo
Tu Tranquilo
no le des mas vueltas
tu tranquilo

tu tranquilo
haztelo tranquilo
Tu Tranquilo




no le des mas vueltas
tu tranquilo

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song 'Tu Tranquilo' by Jackson Browne & David Lindley Feat. Kiko Veneno are in Spanish, and they seem to revolve around the singer's internal unrest and desire for love and affection. The song begins with the singer telling us that he is driving down a road, trying to relieve himself of his troubles. He then reveals that he has seven women in his mind, and he feels weighed down by them. The singer compares himself to Joselito, indicating how the winds of change are blowing in his life.


In the second part of the song, the singer shifts the focus to the present moment, saying that he stands on a corner and looks at life passing him by. He criticizes people who say things like "maybe." Then, he talks about love and how he needs someone who is not religious, dangerous, and "eats him like a lobster in rose sauce." The song essentially tells listeners to take it easy and not worry too much, as life is full of uncertainties.
