Los York's Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ya bebí gran rato
Cosa que no estuvo en mí
Ya bebí gran rato
No, no, no, no
Tu figura pasa aún por mí

Ya bebí gran rato
Cosa que no estuvo en mí
Ya bebí gran rato
No, no, no, no
Tu figura pasa aún por mí

Lo nuestro duro tan solo la muerte
A penas si pudo comenzar
Ya bebí gran rato
Ya bebí gran rato
Ya bebí gran rato
Por ese afecto que había amé

Ya bebí gran rato
No estuvo mal
Tu silenciosa vives hoy

Ya bebí gran rato
Ya bebí gran rato
Piensa y ordena todo
Siempre bella va de sed

Ya bebí gran rato
Ya bebí gran rato
Solo sombras de tirar a ver
Faltaba de complacer
Entonces era un señor
A ver no, no media piel

Cuida'o por la huara huilla pero me costo
(Me costó) me costó construirlo

Ya bebí gran rato
Ya bebí gran rato

Ya bebí un gran rato
Por ese afecto que había amé

Ya bebí gran rato
Ya bebí gran rato
Ya bebí gran rato
No, no estuvo mal
Muy silenciosa vives hoy

Ya bebí gran rato
Ya bebí gran rato
Piensa y arregla todo
Y ... tu estrella encontrarás

Cuidado por donde vas
A botella de vivir
A botella de vivir
Ya bebí gran rato
Ya bebí...

Walter Paz

Una noche yo estaba




Con mi amada y no me dejaba
Que no puede estar sola

Se volvieron a reunir Los Yorks en 1974, pero solo estuvieron Walter Paz, Román Palacios y Pablo Luna..., Jesús Vílchez, y Pacho Aguilar, no pudieron ser ubicados y sus reemplazantes: Pocho Purizaga baterista de Los Dreams y el bajista de La Nueva Crema.
