Yo Me Quedo En Sevilla
Patio De Los Reyes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cantando pasé la vida
Desde la India a Triana
Desde Triana a Sevilla
Con Kelitos de Chapinas
Callejones de Triana
Plaza de Doña Elvira, plazuela, de la Santana
Si tu te vas, si tu te vas, yo me quedo en Sevilla hasta el final
Si tu te vas, si tu te vas, yo me quedo en Sevilla hasta el final
Acuesto con Sevilla por el mundo
No memudo de barrio por un beso
Yo canto pa saber que estoy cantando
Y vivo pa saber que estoy viviendo
Vente pa cá y déjate de frío
Vente pa cá y déjate de frío
Hay una rama en todos los rincones
Me paso a ver, te casarás con migo
Ay Sevilla, seguirá de vacaciones
