Los Lobos - La Bamba

[Chriswood8]

do any one what he his singing about or even know what the lyrics say?

Para bailar la bamba,

para bailar la bamba se necesita

una poca de gracia,

una poca de gracia, y otra cosita.

Ay arriba y arriba,

ay arriba y arriba y arriba ir�.

Yo no soy marinero,

yo no soy marinero, por ti ser�,

por ti ser�, por ti ser�.

Ay la bamba. Ay la bamba.

Para ser tu cu�ado,

para ser tu cu�ado se necesita

que me des a tu hermana

que me des a tu hermana

la m�s bonita Ay arriba y arriba,

ay arriba y arriba y arriba ir�

Yo no soy marinero

yo no soy marinero, soy capit�n,

soy capit�n, soy capit�n.

Ay la bamba, ay al bamba.

Una vez que te dije,

una vez que te dije que eras bonita

se te puso la cara,

se te puso la cara coloradita.

Ay arriba...

In order to dance the Bamba
In order to dance the Bamba,
you need a little grace, a little bit of grace and another little thing
and up and up and up and up and up you will go
I'm not a marine
I'm not a marine
for you will be
for you will be

CHORUS
Bamba, Bamba
Dance the Bamba
Bamba, Bamba
Dance the Bamba!

I sing the Bamba
I sing the Bamba, without intention
because I put in front of , because I put in front of, because I put in front of mi heart

(Chorus)

The Bamba is beautiful
The Bamba is beautiful in the Madruga
While everyone dances,.
While everyone dances well (un decypherable word)

(Chorus)

OK Chris, I don't speak Spanish, but used to sing this. Poco is 'small' or 'little' so some of it refers to a little thank you. I have asked a Spanish speaking person who says that even for them it is a nonsense song. You have got ME going now, so I am going to find out more. Peter D.
