Lyrics and translation Joaquin Bedoya y Su Conjunto - El Cacique Mocorongo

El Cacique Mocorongo

Yo me fui para el congo con mi suegro y mi suegra
Asi lleve a mi negra a hacer una excurcion
Habia una tribu india que comia carne humana
A todos los comieron, oigan lo que paso
Mi suegra que era gorda la comieron primero
Le quitaron la ropa y cruda se la comieron
Cacique mocorongo que es el mas comilon
Le dijo a mi suegro: este lo como yo
Lo agarro de una mano y todo lo desvistio
Y aunque era muy flaquito tambien se lo comio
Se comieron mi suegro
Se comieron mi suegra
Cacique mocorongo
No te comas a mi negra
Se comieron mi suegro
Se comieron mi suegra
Cacique mocorongo
No te comas a mi negra
Y el jefe pluma blanca hermano de mocorongo
Le dijo: yo a esta negra me la como en mondongo
Le quito los calzones, la bata y la peluca
Ya mismo fue sacando dos papas y una yuca
Mi negra esta tan buena que la quieren comer
Y si yo no me vuelvo me come a mi tambien
Se comieron mi suegro
Se comieron mi suegra
Cacique mocorongo
No te comas a mi negra

Chief Mocorongo

I went to the Congo with my father-in-law and my mother-in-law
So as I can take my black woman on an excursion
There was an Indian tribe that ate human flesh
They ate everyone, listen to what happened
My mother-in-law who was fat, they ate her first
They took off her clothes and ate her raw
Chief Mocorongo who is the biggest eater
He told my father-in-law: I'll eat this one
He grabbed him by the hand and undressed him
And although he was very thin, they also ate him
They ate my father-in-law
They ate my mother-in-law
Chief Mocorongo
Don't eat my black woman
They ate my father-in-law
They ate my mother-in-law
Chief Mocorongo
Don't eat my black woman
And Chief Pluma Blanca, brother of Mocorongo
He told her: I'll eat this black woman in a stew
He took off her pants, her dress and her wig
Right away he was taking out two potatoes and a yuca
My black woman is so beautiful that they want to eat her
And if I don't go back, they'll eat me too
They ate my father-in-law
They ate my mother-in-law
Chief Mocorongo
Don't eat my black woman
