El Coco Rayado Lyrics
Ruben Vela
Lyrics
(Un grito! Four, three, two, one.)
(Valle... Let's rock this joint! Hit it!)
Ese coco que quiere Lupe
de la palma lo arranco yo. (2 veces)
Que sí, que sí. Que no, que no
Ese coco rayado lo quiero yo. (2 veces)
"El Conejo" es buen tamborero
camarada de corazón. (2 veces)
(Saludos para...)
(Vámonos!)
Ayer tarde pasé en tu casa
me dijeron que estabas mal. (2 veces)
(¡Pégale al acordeón jefe!)
(¡Vámonos! We're gone! ¡Un grito!)
(Para todos los cocos rayados...)
("El Coco Rayado" acaban de escuchar)
