Siempre Siempre
Pedro Infante Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ustedes se reirán de este pobre borracho
Pero solamente así se disipan las penas verdad de dios
No te fijes como vengo
Lo bueno es que ya llegue
Aunque venga mal herido por los tragos que me eche
Cuando uno empezó a cantar
Y cantaba tan bonito que como no había de entrar
Siempre que me emborracho palabra que algo me pasa
Voy derechito a verte y me equivoco de casa
Siempre que me emborracho yo nada mas pienso en ella
Y no me tranquilizo asta acabar la botella
Y no es mentira
Ustedes se reirán, pero el borracho sufre y goza con el vino y las botellas
Las canciones de borrachos
Quizás los hagan reír
Pero afondo son la quejas del hombre y de su sufrir
Pero mueran las tristezas
Mejor vamos a tomar
Y veras ya cuando llegue eso es si acabo de llegar
Ay dios no se queden muchachos
Siempre que me emborracho palabra que algo me pasa
Voy derechito a verte y me equivoco de casa
Siempre que me emborracho yo nada mas pienso en ella
Y no me tranquilizo asta acabar la botella
The lyrics of Pedro Infante's song "Siempre Siempre" express the struggles of a man who turns to alcohol when he is burdened with sadness and loneliness. The opening lines of the song, "No se fijen como vengo, ustedes se reiran de este pobre borracho, pero solamente asi se disipan las penas verdad de dios" (Don't mind how I come, you will laugh at this poor drunk, but that is the only way to dissipate the sorrows, true God) reveal how alcohol serves as a temporary escape from life's hardships. The singer acknowledges the ridicule he may face for his state but emphasizes the need for alcohol to numb his pain.
The lyrics reveal that the singer's drinking is fueled by his love for a woman, evident in the line "siempre que me emborracho, yo nada más pienso en ella, y no me tranquilizo hasta acabar la botella" (every time I get drunk, I only think of her, and I don't calm down until I finish the bottle). Despite the consequences, the singer continues to seek solace in alcohol and persists in expressing his devotion to his love even when inebriated. The song ends with the plea "ay dios no se queden muchachos" (oh God, do not stay here, boys), which suggests that the singer is aware of the harm his lifestyle may bring to others.
