Paroles et traduction Joel Elizalde - El Molino

El Molino

daba bueltas el molino
cuando yo llege a asomarme
no tuviendo que decirme
pues tuvieron que invitarme
alma mia de mis amores
que cosas hacen los grandes

dijo el jefe a sus segundo
que la dejen bien molida
pero no con mucho corte
para que le den salida
y que si tenia valor
que le entrara a la movida

daba vueltas el molino
y no deja de jirar
por que muchos la procesan
pero quien la compra es mas
esto si que es buen negocio
no me lo van a negar

solamente es mal negocio
cuando te agarra la ley
no platiques ni presumas
que nomas tu eres el rey
ni te comas tu solito
cuando tengas el pastel

daba bueltas el molino
y jirando se quedo
como no le quice entrar
esto me decia el patron
cuando quieras te esperamos
tu eres hombre de valor

daba bueltas el molino
y por cierto muy seguidas
unos por nececidad
le an entrado a la movida
otros por hacer dinero
an perdido asta la vida

The Mill

The mill was turning
When I arrived to check it out
Without having to tell me
They had to invite me
My love, my dear
How the big shots carry on

The boss said to his second-in-command
Let's get it ground fine
But not too finely cut
So we can move it
And if he's got the guts
Let him get involved in the operation

The mill was turning
And it kept on going around
Because many process it
But there are even more who buy it
This is truly a good business
There's no denying it

The only bad business
Is when the law catches you
Don't talk or brag
That you're the only kingpin
And don't eat it all by yourself
When you have the whole cake

The mill was turning
And it stopped spinning
Because I didn't want to get involved
This is what the boss told me
We'll be waiting for you when you're ready
You're a man of courage

The mill was turning
And by the way, very often
Some out of necessity
Have entered the operation
Others to make money
Have lost their lives
