Wop-A-Din-Din - Red House Painters

She’s got big green eyes

And a long Egyptian face

She moves across the floor

At her own pace

When I’m here in bed

She’ll jump up on my chest

And when we lock eyes there’s so much love

I wanna cry

She comes in near

When I scratch under her ear

And she lifts her head

When I kiss around her neck

Won’t go to sleep

When she falls along my side

And two green eyes fade

To a porcelain marble white

And somehow when I sleep

She’ll end up at my feet

And if I roll and kick her out

I might knock her to the ground

But she’ll come back anyhow

Ella es mi hijita (she's my little daughter)

Más dulce que las cerezas (sweeter than cherries)

Pura como el agua (pure as water)

Con la nariz y las orejas rosas (pink nose and ears)

The morning comes

She squints up to shield out the sun

And she’ll go and lay

In the warmest dusty rays

And I hold her face

She lays perfectly in place

And she’ll yawn and stretch

And stare me down expressionless

And lay back down into her nest

And if someone calls

She’ll race me out the hall

When she hears the phone

Then she knows I’m leaving home

She don’t wanna be alone

And I know it’s wrong

That I’m going away so long

And for her it’s rough

I can’t be with her enough

But I’ll never give her up

Sus ojos brillan como el sol (eyes shine like the sun)

La amo más que nadie (i love her more than anything)

Con manchas de vaca (with cow pattern skin)

Más suave que cochinita (softer than a piglet)

And somehow when I sleep

She’ll end up at my feet

And if I roll and kick her out

I might knock her to the ground

But she’ll come back anyhow
