Uno por pobre y feo
One for being poor and ugly
pero antojao
but craving for more
Tengo la camisa negra
I have the black shirt
hoy mi amor está de luto
today my love is in mourning
hoy tengo en el alma una pena
today I have a sorrow in my soul
y es por culpa de tu embrujo
and it's because of your enchantment
Hoy sé que tu ya no me quieres
Today I know that you no longer love me
y eso es lo que mas me hiere
and that's what hurts me the most
que tengo la camisa negra
that I have the black shirt
y una pena que me duele
and a pain that hurts me
Mal parece que solo me quede
It seems bad that I'm left alone
y fue pura todita tu mentira
and it was all your pure lie
qué maldita mala suerte la mía
what a cursed bad luck I have
que aquel día te encontré
that on that day I found you
Por beber del veneno
By drinking from the poison
malevo(lo) de tu amor
of your wicked love
yo quede moribundo
I was left moribund
y lleno de dolor
and filled with pain
respiré de ese humo
I breathed in that smoke
amargo de tu adiós
bitter from your goodbye
y desde que tu te fuiste
and since you left
yo solo...
I'm alone...
Tengo, tengo la camisa negra
I have, I have the black shirt
Porque negra tengo el alma
Because my soul is black
Yo por ti perdí la calma
I lost my calm because of you
Y casi pierdo hasta mi cama
And I almost lost even my bed
cama c'mon c'mon baby
bed c'mon c'mon baby
te digo con disimulo
I tell you discreetly
que tengo la camisa negra
that I have the black shirt
y debajo tengo el difunto
and underneath I have the deceased
(Pa enterrartelo cuando quieras mamita
(To bury it when you want, my dear
Asi como lo oye hija)
Just like you hear it, daughter)
Tengo la camisa negra
I have the black shirt
ya tu amor no me interesa
your love no longer interests me
lo que ayer me supo a gloria
what yesterday tasted like glory
hoy me sabe a pura
today tastes purely
miércoles por la tarde
Wednesday afternoon
y tu que no llegas
and you, who aren't arriving
nisiquiera muestras señas
not even giving signs
y yo con la camisa negra
and I'm with the black shirt
y tus maletas en la puerta
and your suitcases at the door
Mal parece que solo me quede
It seems bad that I'm left alone
y fue pura todita tu mentira
and it was all your pure lie
qué maldita mala suerte la mía
what a cursed bad luck I have
que aquel día te encontré
that on that day I found you
Por beber del veneno
By drinking from the poison
malevo(lo) de tu amor
of your wicked love
yo quede moribundo
I was left moribund
y lleno de dolor
and filled with pain
respiré de ese humo
