Me Voy Para El Pueblo
Los Tres Reyes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Me voy pa′l pueblo
Hoy es mi día
Voy a alegrar toda el alma mía
Me voy pa'l pueblo
Hoy es mi día
Voy a alegrar toda el alma mía

Tanto como yo trabajo
Y nunca puedo irme al basilon
No se que pasa con esta guajira
Que no le gusta el huateque y el son.

Ahora mismo la voy a dejar
En su bohío asando maíz
Me voy pa′l pueblo a tomarme un galón
Y cuando vuelva se acabo el carbon.

Me voy pa'l pueblo
Hoy es mi día
Voy a alegrar toda el alma mía
Me voy pa'l pueblo
Hoy es mi día
Voy a alegrar toda el alma mía

Desde el día que nos casamos
Hasta la fecha trabajando estoy
Quiero que sepas que no estoy dispuesta
A enterrar mi vida en un rincón

Es lindo el campo muy bien ya lo se
Pero p′al pueblo voy echando un pie
Si tu no vienes mejor es así
Pues yo no sera de mi





Me voy pal pueblo hoy es mi dia voy alegrar toda el alma mia
