Coplas Lyrics
Coplas - The Kingston Trio
Cha cha
Chile verde me pediste chile verde te dare
Vama nos para la huer ta con al la te lo cortare
Tell them what it means then
You want green peppers si
I'll give you green peppers come out to the garden
Coplas
Lai lai lai lai hum de lai lai lai hum de lai lai lai lai
Lai lai lai hum de lai lai lai hum de lai lai lai
Dice que los de fu casa ninguno me puede ver
Diles que no basta el agua que al cabo lahan do beber
Tell your parents not to muddy the water around us
Porque they may have to drink it soon coplas
Lai lai lai lai hum de lai lai lai hum de lai lai
Lai lai lai lai lai hum de lai lai lai hum de lai lai lai
La mula que yo mente la monto hoy mi compadre
Eso a mi no me importa pues yo la mon te primero oivey
Ah so you are surprised I speak your language
You see I was educated in your country at UCRA
Lai lai lai lai hum de lai lai lai hum de lai lai
Lai lai lai lai lai hum de lai lai lai hum de lai lai lai
La noche que me case no pudde dormirme un rato
Por estar toda la noche corriendos detras de un gato meow
Me dejiste que fue un gato que entro por tu balcon
Yo no visto gato prieto con sombrero y pantalon
On my wedding night I did not sleep a wink
I spent the whole night chasing a cat that had come in
Over the balcony meow wearing a sombrero and long pants
Lai lai lai lai hum de lai lai lai hum de lai
Lai lai lai lai lai lai
Hum de lai lai lai hum de lai lai lai
