Me escapé por la ventana
I escaped through the window
Eran las dos, eran las tres
It was two, it was three
Prendí un cigarro, mojé mi pelo
I lit a cigarette, wet my hair
Como un felino me arrastré
Like a feline, I slinked away
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Llegué tan sola y un poco nerviosa
I arrived so alone and a bit nervous
Aparentaba ser mayor
I looked older than I was
Labios rojos, chicle de menta
Red lips, minty gum
Nadie bailaba como yo
No one danced like I did
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, amor, ¡qué vida tan buena!
Hey, love, what a beautiful life!
Hey, amor, ¡qué vida tan buena!
Hey, love, what a beautiful life!
Hey, amor, ¡qué vida tan buena!
Hey, love, what a beautiful life!
Hey, amor, ¡qué vida tan buena!
Hey, love, what a beautiful life!
Lo besé como una loca
I kissed him like a madwoman
Esa noche me fue bien
That night went well for me
De mi calceta saqué una bolsa
From my knitting, I made a bag
Nadie bailaba como él
Nobody danced like him
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
