Lyrics and translation Los Sencillos - Alta y Delgada




Alta y Delgada
Tall and Thin
Hay un hombre ahí fuera que pregunta por ti, muy educadamente
There's a man out there who's asking for you, very politely
Ni joven ni viejo
Neither young nor old
Entero
A full man
Trae regalos
He brings gifts
Muy poco dinero
Very little money
Y unos ojos como platos que se abren cuando habla de ti
And saucer eyes that open wide when he talks about you
Se ve que te quiere
You can see that he love you
Está por tus huesos
He's all over your bones
Y hablando de huesos, no ha dejado de llover y el hombre está esperando
And speaking of bones, it hasn't stopped raining and the man is waiting
Mira sincero
He looks sincere
Habla despacio para no molestar
He speaks slowly so as not to disturb
Habla en dados y el piano está afinado
He speaks of dice and the piano is in tune
Le gustaría tocar
He would like to play it
Trae polvo de camino en sus zapatos
He brings the dust of the road on his shoes
No ha dejado migas para volver
He hasn't left any crumbs to get back
Que eras tan joven
That you were so young
Que eras tan guapa
That you were so beautiful
Alta y delgada como tu madre
Tall and thin like your mother
Se ve que te quiere
You can tell he loves you
Está por tus huesos
He's all over your bones
Y después de la cena, cuando halla café y él nos toca el piano
And after dinner, when there's coffee and he plays the piano
Haciendo muchos por el foro, yo me marcharé, yeh, yeh
Making many a hole in the forum, I'll leave, yeah, yeah
No ha dejado migas para volver
He hasn't left any crumbs to get back
Que eras tan joven
That you were so young
Que eras tan guapa
That you were so beautiful
Alta y delgada como tu madre
Tall and thin like your mother
Se ve que te quiere
You can tell he loves you
Está por tus huesos
He's all over your bones
Alta y delgada como tu madre
Tall and thin like your mother
Que eras tan joven
That you were so young
Que eras tan guapa
That you were so beautiful
