Lyrics and translation Los Tucanes de Tijuana - Empinando El Codo




Empinando El Codo
Raising a Glass
Destapame otra ceRveza
Bring me another cold one
Porq ya me estoy seCandO
Because I'm starting to dry out
No piensen qe soy borracHO
Don't think I'm a drunkard
Tampco qe soy un santO
Or that I'm a saint
Me gusta empinar el codO
I like to raise a glass
Nomas ay de ves en cuandO
Just every once in a while
El mundo en el qe vivimOs
The world in which we live
Es un mundO fabulosO
Is a wonderful place
Hay qe gozar sus encantOs
We should enjoy its charms
Todo esta esho pa nosotrOs
Everything was made for us
Olvidensen de la penas
Forget your sorrows
Por favor abran los ojOs
Please open your eyes
Las noches se me asen cortas
The nights seem short to me
Cuando ando empinando el codO
When I'm raising a glass
Plaseres y mas plaseres
Pleasures and more pleasures
Cerveza vino y cotorrO
Beer, wine, and merrymaking
Amigos norteño y banda
Friends, norteño music, and banda
Asi soy feliz ni modO
That's how I'm happy, like it or not
Me gusta ser gente libre
I like to be free
Tan libre como es el aire
As free as the wind
No me gustan los problemas
I don't like problems
Tampoco le temo a nadie
I don't fear anyone either
Si me buscan les atorO
If they look for me, I'll surprise them
Haci me enseño mi padre
That's how my father taught me
No hay qe pensar en la muerte
We shouldn't think about death
Porqe esa llega solita
Because it will come on its own
Hay qe pensar en la vida
We should think about life
Como vivirla bonita
How to live it well
No hay qe esperar el mañana
Let's not wait for tomorrow
Vamos a empesar aorita
Let's start now
Las noches se me asen cortas
The nights seem short to me
Cuando ando empinando el codO
When I'm raising a glass
Placeres y mas placeres
Pleasures and more pleasures
Cerveza vino y cotorrO
Beer, wine, and merrymaking
Amigos norteño y banda
Friends, norteño music, and banda
Asi soy feliz ni modO
That's how I'm happy, like it or not
