Voy a comprar un carro Ford, voy a comprar un carro Ford
I'm going to buy a Ford car, I'm going to buy a Ford car
Que vuele en la carretera
Let it fly on the highway
Y lo pongo en dirección, y lo pongo en dirección
And I set it in motion, and I set it in motion
Del Valle pa Villanueva
From Valle to Villanueva
Como yo no tomo ron, como yo no tomo ron
Since I don't drink rum, since I don't drink rum
Quiero mi trago en monedas
I want my drink in coins
Pa comprarme un carro Ford, pa comprarme un carro Ford
To buy myself a Ford car, to buy myself a Ford car
Que vuele en la carretera
Let it fly on the highway
Y si te lo compro, te enseño a manejar
And if I buy it for you, I'll teach you to drive
Toditos los cambios, Del Valle a Patillal
All the shifts, from Valle to Patillal
Y si te lo compro, será con llantas nuevas
And if I buy it for you, it'll have new tires
Pa viajar contento del Valle a Villanueva
To travel happy from Valle to Villanueva
Voy a comprar un carro Ford, voy a comprar un carro Ford
I'm going to buy a Ford car, I'm going to buy a Ford car
Si te gusta cómo suena
If you like how it sounds
La fuerza de su motor, la fuerza de su motor
The strength of its engine, the strength of its engine
Que ruge en la carretera
That roars on the highway
Cuando tenga tu atención, cuando tenga tu atención
When I have your attention, when I have your attention
Y me des alguna seña
And you give me some sign
Prenderé mi carro Ford para llevarte, mi amor
I'll start my Ford car to take you, my love
Por toditas estas tierras
Through all these lands
¡Ey!, ¡vamos a vivir sabroso!
Hey! Let's live it up!
Y si te lo compro, te enseño a manejar
And if I buy it for you, I'll teach you to drive
Toditos los cambios, Del Valle a Patillal
All the shifts, from Valle to Patillal
Y si te lo compro, será con llantas nuevas
And if I buy it for you, it'll have new tires
Pa viajar seguros del Valle a Villanueva
To travel safely from Valle to Villanueva
Nos vamos juntitos para Venezuela
We're going together to Venezuela
Nos vamos cantando las canciones nuevas
We're going singing the new songs
Ven, que yo te enseño, tú me lo manejas
Come, I'll teach you, you drive it for me
Cuando me dé sueño por la carretera
When I feel sleepy on the highway
Oye, se le siente la cabrilla suavecita
Hey, you can feel the smooth ride
¿Ah?
Huh?
