Tequila Lyrics
Korpiklaani
Lyrics
Miesten mieli maailmalle,
Poluil tietämättömille.
Merien, teiden tuolle puolle,
Taivalt tuonne taittoin.
Kulkurina maailmalla,
Soitel' viinan vihmomana,
Kansoil' tuntemattomille.
(Ryypäten elämän janoon.)
Vei polkumme Meksikoon,
Jossa elo on tequilaa.
Argentiina, Columbia, Chile, el viva!
Tiemme Brasiliaan,
Jossa elo caipirinhaa.
Argentiina, Columbia, Chile, el viva!
Caipirinha, tequila, caipirinha, tequila, el viva!
Kun ol' kyllin jano juotu,
Soitettu mailman tuvil'.
Matkattu pallo halki, poikki.
Piot huolella pietty.
Ei ollut huolta huomenesta,
Ajatusta aionkana,
Kunnes ilon vanhetessa,
Koto mieltä myöden.
Vei polkumme Meksikoon,
Jossa elo on tequilaa.
Argentiina, Columbia, Chile, el viva!
Tiemme Brasiliaan,
Jossa elo caipirinhaa.
Argentiina, Columbia, Chile, el viva!
Caipirinha, tequila, caipirinha, tequila, el viva!
Vei polkumme Meksikoon,
Jossa elo on tequilaa.
Argentiina, Columbia, Chile, el viva!
Tiemme Brasiliaan,
Jossa elo caipirinhaa.
Argentiina, Columbia, Chile, el viva!
Caipirinha, tequila, caipirinha, tequila, el viva!
Vei polkumme Meksikoon, Tequila
Argentiina, Columbia, Tequila
Tiemme Brasiliaan, Caipirinha
Argentiina, Columbia, Tequila
