Lyrics and translation Cimafunk feat. Omara Portuondo, Orquesta Aragón, Pancho Amat & Chucho Valdés - El Potaje

El Potaje

Las cosas de la vida hay que cojerlas suavecito.
Evita siempre los excesos, pa andar calmao.
La gozadera con medida, ayyy.
Que si la fiesta se repleta, vamos pa otro lao.

Las cosas de la vida hay que cojerlas suavecito.
Evita siempre los excesos, pa andar calmao.
La gozadera con medida, ayyy.
Que si la fiesta se repleta, vamos pa otro lao.

Vamo, calienta.

Aaaaaa no fuimos ya, a bailar pegao.
Dice tu cuerpo que no hay funky sin tumbao.
Aaaaaa no fuimos ya, to el mundo ripiao.
La vieja escuela con los chama coordinao.

Uuuu

Uuu

La pepilla.
Esta noche no voy a parar, esta noche me voy al bembe.
Si tu quieres salir a bailar, no demores que ya.
Que ya estan sonando.
Y ya se escuchan los tambore en el monte.
Ya estamos llegando.
No tengas miedo si la luna se esconde.
Vamonos sin frenos querido.

Aa
A bailar pegao,
Dice tu cuerpo que no hay funky sin tumbao.
Aaaaaa no fuimos ya, to el mundo ripiao.
La vieja escuela con los chama coordinao.

Y se formo la potajera,
Ritmo con salsa es lo que hay y regalao pa cualquiera.
Pa que te alimentes bieeen.
Con sabrosura a la criolla desde cuba cocinado por la abuela.
Si no sabe de donde tu viene pa donde tu va?
Si te dicen que eso es nuevo, eso es mentira echa pa aca.

The Potage

Baby, take life slow.
Avoid excesses, so you stay calm.
Enjoy yourself in moderation, my love.
If the party gets too crowded, let's go somewhere else.

Baby, take life slow.
Avoid excesses, so you stay calm.
Enjoy yourself in moderation, my love.
If the party gets too crowded, let's go somewhere else.

Come on, warm up.

Come on, let's dance close.
Your body tells me there's no funky without passion.
Come on, let's not hold back, everybody's dancing.
The old school and the young ones are grooving together.

Ooh
Take it
Ooh
Take it as you go
Ooh

My little one.
I'm not going to stop tonight, I'm going to the party tonight.
If you want to go dancing, don't wait any longer, let's go.
Because the music is already playing.
And you can already hear the drums in the distance.
We're almost there.
Don't be afraid if the moon hides.
Let's go without hesitation, my dear.

Aa
Come on, dance close,
Your body tells me there's no funky without passion.
Come on, let's not hold back, everybody's dancing.
The old school and the young ones are grooving together.
Ooh

Pancho Amat,
The academy.
Learn

He says, he says.
And the party got rocking,
Rhythm with salsa is what's up and it's free for all.
So you can feed yourself well.
With Cuban-style flavor cooked up by grandma.
If you don't know where you come from, where are you going?
If they tell you that's something new, that's a lie, come here.
Because everything was invented here long ago.
Stop talking and learn the moves.
Oh
Listen, take it as you go.
What are they saying out there? The arrow.
Push it

Come on, let's dance close.
Your body tells me there's no funky without passion.
Come on, let's not hold back, everybody's dancing.
The old school and the young ones are grooving together.
Come on.
Aaaaa aaoooo
Come on, dance close.
Uuuuu
Everybody's dancing.
Aoooo
Eeeee
Come on, dance close.
Aoooo
Everybody's dancing.
Take it as you go.

If you don't know, don't ask me anything
