El Querreque (Full Mix Vocal)

Lyrics

EL QUERREQUE


VERSE 1
Es buena la cervicita
para el que esta desvelado
para el que esta desvelado
es buena la cervcita.

Yo prefiero un tequillita
que es lo mejor para lo hinchinado
que es lo mejor para lo hinchinado
y hasta lo panzon se quita

CHORUS
Querreque (A Kind of Bird)
Ay que bonito de son
Querreque
Para bailarlo contigo

VERSE 2
Del whisky y el aguardiente
cual es el mejor licor
cual es el mejor licor
del whisky y el aguardiente.

Yo digo que el aguardiente
por que es emborrachador
emborracha al presidente
tambien al gobernador.

VERSE 3 (On our arr.)*
Me encontre con la huesuda
sin saber que era la muerte
sin saber que era la muerte
me encontre con la huesuda

Me dijo la testaruda
no bebas el aguardiente
vas a morir de una cruda
amarga sera tu suerte.

VERSE 4 (On our arr.)*
Un querreque en un estero
cantaba desesperado
cantaba desesperado
un querreque en un estero.

Y dice el carpintero
hombre vive con cuidado
que siendo yo carbonero
una vieja me ha tiznado.

EL QUERREQUE



VERSE 1
It's good, a little beer
For the one who is sleepless
For the one who is sleepless
It's good, a little beer

I prefer a little tequila
It's the best for the swelling
It's the best for the swelling
And the paunch (potbelly) goes away

CHORUS
Querreque (A Kind of Bird)
What a beautiful rhythm it is
Querreque
For me to dance with you

VERSE 2
Of whiskey and rough liquor
Which is the best liqueur
Which is the best liqueur
Of whiskey and brandy

I say that the rough liquor
Because it is the booze
That gets the President drunk
Also the Governor

CHORUS

VERSE 3 (On our arr.)*
I encountered the "boney" (Grim Reaper)
Without knowing that it was dead
Without knowing that is was dead
I encountered the "boney"

The transient told me not to drink the rough liquor)
Because you are going to die a hard death
And your luck will be bitter

CHORUS

VERSE 4 (On our arr.)*
A querreque in an estuary
Sings as if driven to despair
Sings as if driven to despair
A querreque in an estuary

And said to the carpenter
"Man, live carefully"
That you were a coalman
Who smutted an old lady (In other words, tread carefully)

CHORUS
