Y que me case contigo (bis)
Porque lo que tú pretendes
Es que sea tu marido (bis)
Tú crees que es así, (sí, sí)
Eso no es así (no, no)
Para ser así (no, no) (bis)
Que te dé veinte mil de pesos
Porque quieres abrir una cuenta (bis)
Y te dé un millón de pesos
Pa' comprar una residencia (bis)
Tu crees que es así...
Que te saque de Curramba
A vivir a Bogotá (bis)
Porque si el león te agarra
Seguro te va a matar (bis)
Tú crees que es así...
The lyrics to Nelson Henriquez's song Tú Crees Que Es Así depict a conversation between two people, where one person is trying to convince the other to divorce their current spouse and marry them instead. The person being asked to divorce expresses their disbelief at the situation, telling the other person that what they are proposing is not right. The chorus repeats twice, with the first line saying "You think it's like that" and the second line saying "It's not like that." The verses continue with the person asking for money for a bank account and a new home, as well as wanting to leave their current location out of fear of being caught by a "lion" or predator.
The lyrics in this song are a reflection of real-life situations where people are tempted to give up their current relationships for something they think is better. The song highlights the moral dilemma that often arises in situations like these, where one person is asked to betray their commitment to someone else. Musically, the song is a classic example of traditional Latin American music, with a lively beat and a distinct tropical sound.
