El Muerto Vivo - Spain, Peret

A mi amigo Blanco Herrera le pagaron su salario

Y sin pensarlo dos veces salió para malgastarlo

Una semana de juerga y perdió el conocimiento

Como no volvía a su casa todos le daban por muerto

Y no estaba muerto no, no y no estaba muerto no, no

Y no estaba muerto no, no, estaba tomando cañas, lerelele

Y no estaba muerto no, no y no estaba muerto no, no

Y no estaba muerto no, no, chevere, chevere, chévere

Pero al cabo de unos días de haber desaparecido

Encontraron uno muerto, un muerto muy parecido

Le montaron un velorio y le rezaron la novena

Le perdonaron sus deudas y lo enterraron con pena

Y no estaba muerto no, no y no estaba muerto no, no

Y no estaba muerto no, no, estaba tomando cañas, lerelele

Y no estaba muerto no, no y no estaba muerto no, no

Y no estaba muerto no, no, chevere, chevere, chévere

Pero un día se apareció lleno de vida y contento

Diciéndole a todo el mundo eh!

se equivocaron de muerto

El lío que se formó eso sí que es puro cuento

Su mujer ya no lo quiere, no quiere dormir con muertos

No estaba muerto estaba de parranda

No estaba muerto estaba de parranda

A mi papa el chocolate, le pagaron su salario

Y no estaba muerto no, no y no estaba muerto no, no

Y no estaba muerto no, no, lerelele lerelé

My friend Blanco Herrera was paid his salary

And without thinking twice he went out to waste it

A week of partying and he passed out

Since he did not return to his house, everyone thought he was dead.

And he wasn't dead no no and he wasn't dead no no

And he wasn't dead no, no, he was drinking beers, lerelele

And he wasn't dead no no and he wasn't dead no no

And he wasn't dead, no, no, cool, cool, cool

But after a few days of having disappeared

They found one dead, a very similar dead

They set up a wake for him and prayed the novena

They forgave his debts and buried him with sorrow

And he wasn't dead no no and he wasn't dead no no

And he wasn't dead no, no, he was drinking beers, lerelele

And he wasn't dead no no and he wasn't dead no no

And he wasn't dead, no, no, cool, cool, cool

But one day he showed up full of life and happy

Telling everyone hey!

they were dead wrong

The mess that was formed that is pure story

His wife doesn't love him anymore, she doesn't want to sleep with the dead

He was not dead, he was out partying

He was not dead, he was out partying

To my dad the chocolate, they paid him his salary

And he wasn't dead no no and he wasn't dead no no

And he wasn't dead, no, no, lerelele lerelé
