Lyrics and translation Paquita la del Barrio - El Consejo

El Consejo

Hoy vengo aquí a molestarla
Para pedirle un consejo
Usted conoce a los hombres
Que se pasan de traviesos
Hoy ya sufrí algunas penas
Con algunos que no son buenos
Quisiera que me ayudara
Que con otra ya no puedo
Yo cuando estaba más joven
De esas penas pase tantas
Traidores que me engañaron
Y una rata de dos patas
Solo hazme caso mijita
Y atiende bien mi consejo
La ley del ojo por ojo
Hay que usar con esos viejos
Al que me engañe lo engaño
Al que me pegue le pego
Al que me use lo uso
Y así quedamos parejos

The Advice

Today I come here to bother you
To ask you for some advice
You know about men
Who are very naughty
Today I already suffered some sorrows
With some who are not good
I would like you to help me
Because with another one I can't
When I was younger
I went through so many of those sorrows
Traitors who deceived me
And a two-legged rat
Just listen to me, my dear
And pay close attention to my advice
The law of an eye for an eye
Must be used with those old men
The one who deceives me, I deceive
The one who hits me, I hit
The one who uses me, I use
And that way we stay even
