Original text with translation
Ismael Rivera, Rafael Cortijo
Un negro que se fue al cielo
Quiso enseguida en el cielo entrar
Y viendo que no le abrían
Al buen San Pedro empezó a llamar
Y San Pedro como es tan bueno
Le preguntó
Negrito, que tú has hecho
Pa' merecer esta distinción
El negro ya resignado
Al buen San Pedro le preguntó
Pedrito, aquí nadie se ha enterado
Porque la prensa aquí no llegó
Y San Pedro desesperado le preguntó
Y qué has hecho pa' merecer esta distinción
Que en Alabama a las doce del día
Con una rubia yo me casé
Hace un minuto, oye San Pedro
Y ya tú ves cómo me limpié
A black gone to heaven
He immediately wanted to enter heaven
And seeing that they did not open
The good San Pedro began to call
And San Pedro like him is so good
he asked her
Black, what have you done?
To deserve this distinction
The already resigned black
To the good San Pedro he asked
Pedrito, nobody here has found out
Because the press here did not arrive
And desperate Saint Peter asked him
And what have you done to deserve this distinction
That in Alabama at twelve o'clock
I married a blonde
A minute ago, hey Saint Peter
And you see how I cleaned myself
