Que Me Canten En Vida
El Charrito Negro
Sing to Me While I'm Alive
BECAUSE THEY SING TO THE DEAD
IF ONE WHEN DEAD CANNOT HEAR
WHY WAIT UNTIL ONE DIES
TO HONOR THEM WITH SUCH KINDNESS
IF THEY SING TO ME WHEN I DIE
I PREFER THEY SING TO ME NOW
SING TO ME WHILE I'M ALIVE
BECAUSE WHEN DEAD, WHY
IF WITH BEAUTIFUL SONGS
I WILL NOT RESURRECT
(REPEAT)
SING TO ME BUT WHILE I'M ALIVE
FOR WHAT A BEAUTIFUL FUNERAL
IF THEY NO LONGER DARE TO VISIT
AND SO MUCH COMPANY
IF THEY WILL ONLY LEAVE ME IN MY TOMB
AND IF IN A VERY SHORT TIME
ONLY IN THEIR MEMORIES MY NAME WILL BE
SING TO ME WHILE I'M ALIVE
BECAUSE WHEN DEAD, WHY
IF WITH BEAUTIFUL SONGS
I WILL NOT RESURRECT
(REPEAT)
