Me Gusta Tomar Cerveza
Los Originales De San Juan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Me gusta tomar cerveza
Es como mi medicina
Si hace calo me refresca
Si estoi triste me reanima
Por eso tomo cerveza
Porque me alegra la vida

Me la paso dando vueltas
Por las calles de mi barrio
Montado en mi camioneta
Es una escalade del año
Con cartones de cerveza
Que hasta hielera me cargo

Me gusta tomar cerveza...
Y pasarme bien el rato...
No quiero pensar en esa
Que se que no me ase caso
Por eso tomo cerveza
Para no sentir tan gacho

Oiga mi compadre chapo
Que buenas rolas me pone
Son puras que me dan sed
Como que me las compone,
Para calmarme esta vez
Ponme corridos perrones

Me gusta tomar cerveza...
Y pasarme bien el rato...
No quiero pensar en esa
Que se que no me ase caso




Por eso tomo cerveza
Para no sentir tan gacho
