Pipistrel
Music: John Canaro Lyrics: Fernando Ochoa
button the corner house,
when I go out to sweep the Vedera,
approaches me and tells me the villain:
"Pts! Pipistrela! Pts! Pipistrela! "
ar mercao I have an arena that looks at me,
which is a methane engrupido'e crioyo;
I put the 'eye' p 'up and
endemientra him a repoyo pianto.
call me Pipistrela
and I let her call;
is better to go through gila
if a is really alive.
'm a classy chick,
manye how pretty woman ...
The pint that God has given me
I have to enforce!
I'm dry as many mucamos,
cooks, buttons and guards;
I spend my life waiting
and fails ... the otario ...
I would be very vento
pa'comprarme or hat and shoe,
anapa a downtown arena
pa 'leave this leg of duck ...
