La Mesera - Los Traileros del Norte translation in English

La Mesera

En una fonda chiquita que parecía restaurante
Me meti a echar unos tacos porque ya me andaba de hambre
Ya ven que el hambre es canija pero más mal que la aguante

Se me acerco una morena que estaba requete tres piedras
Me dijo que se le ofrese puede pedir lo que quiera
Señor estoy pa' servirle aquí yo soy la mesera

Lo mas miré aquella prieta se me olvidaron los tacos
Le dije traiga cerveza de pollo sirva dos plato
Y Usted se sienta conmigo pa' divertirnos un rato

Le pregunté eres casada, me contesto vivo sola
Pero antes de que le sigas, écha tocar la pianola
No más le pones un peso porque esta no toca sola

No sé ni cuantas tomamos yo y mi amiga la mesera
El cuento es que hasta bailamos a punto de borrachera
Cantamos la cucaracha y creo que hasta la rielera

Ya cuando se hizo de noche le dije a que hora nos vamos
Me dijo no chiquitito en eso si no quedamos
Pero si traes dinerito hasta una polka bailamos

The Waitress

In a small-time diner that looked like a restaurant
I went in to eat some tacos since I was already starving
You know hunger is a bitch, it's worse for those who endure it

A brown-skinned girl approached me, she was a real looker
She asked me what I wanted, that I could order whatever I wanted
Sir, I'm here to serve you, I'm the waitress here

When I saw that gorgeous girl I forgot all about the tacos
I told her to bring me some beer and two plates of chicken
And you sit down with me so we can have some fun

I asked her if she was married, she said she lived alone
But before you go any further, let's play the pianola
Just put a coin in it, because it doesn't play on its own

I don't know how many drinks we had, me and that waitress
The thing is, we even danced until we almost passed out
We sang La Cucaracha and I think we even sang La Rielera

When it got dark outside I asked her what time we were leaving
She said no, little boy, that's something we don't do
But if you've got some money, we can even dance a polka
