La Mona Jiménez Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Virginia me invitó a su casa
una tarde a tomar el té
hace tiempo lo esperaba
que ni siquiera lo pensé

Me sentía tan nervioso
que no lo podía creer
pero cuando entré a su casa
a la mesa yo me la choque

Perdón virginia te rompí la vajilla
Perdón virginia la vajilla te rompí

Perdón virginia te rompí la vajilla
Perdón virginia la vajilla te rompí

Después de ese acontecimiento
con virginia yo me disculpé
le dije que me perdonara
que no lo volvería hacer
yo seguía tan nervioso
que no lo podía creer
y cundo corrí mi brazo
la vajilla le desparramé





Perdón virginia te rompí la vajilla
Perdón virginia la vajilla te rompí
