[English]

This song was requested a lot

It's a song composed by

My good friend, Isidro Espinosa Paz

Thank you, old man, this is how Grupo Firme sounds

Come on, guys, uah!

...

From drink to drink

With my prepaid

I'm trying to forget you

I know I'm slow

But forgetting

Will come at any moment

From drink to drink

I'm just hanging around

With this song in the background

Look into my eyes

Even if you mock

Already from you, why should I hide?

From drink to drink, I'm just hanging around

Falling at every corner

I've been partying for two months and it doesn't end

The classy girl

And I'm just ordinary (ha, ha, ha)

From drink to drink, I pay for passion

To see if someone imitates you

You were much more than a pretty face

You still mean everything, everything

To me

...

How I love her, man, uah!

...

From drink to drink, I'm just hanging around

Falling at every corner

I've been partying for two months and it doesn't end

The classy girl

And I'm just ordinary

From drink to drink, I pay for passion

To see if someone imitates you

You were much more than a pretty face

You still mean everything, everything

To me

...

[Spanish]

Esta canción nos la pidieron mucho

Es una canción que compuso

Mi buen amigo, Isidro Espinosa Paz

Gracias, viejo, así suena Grupo Firme

¡Jálense muchachos, uah!

De trago en trago

Con mi prepago

Ando queriendo olvidarte

Sé que voy lento

Pero el olvido

Llegará en cualquier momento

De trago en trago

Ando de vago

Con esta canción de fondo

Mira mis ojos

Aunque te burles

Ya de ti, pa qué me escondo

De trago en trago, ando de vago

Cayéndome en cada esquina

Tengo dos meses de parranda y no terminan

La niña fina

Y yo corriente (ja, ja, ja)

De trago en trago, por pasión pago

Para ver si alguien te imita

Tú fuiste mucho más que una cara bonita

Tú sigues siendo todo, todo

Para mí

Cómo la quiero, hijo, ¡uah!

De trago en trago, ando de vago

Cayéndome en cada esquina

Tengo dos meses de parranda y no terminan

La niña fina

Y yo corriente

De trago en trago, por pasión pago

Para ver si alguien te imita

Tú fuiste mucho más que una cara bonita

Tú sigues siendo todo, todo

Para mí
