Plata Pero Poquita

I don’t want a million bucks
I just want a little cash
As long as I get my three meals
And three changes of clothes

The booze and the good times
Living surrounded by friends
Doing my duties right
And having no enemies

When I was just a kid
I was wild and ambitious
I prayed to God above
To make me a famous guy

Horses, farms, and cars
Watches and gold jewelry
Greenbacks in the bank
Mansions and a big treasure

But God put me to the test
Made it a little tough
Sent me to work hard
Earning just a little cash

Sure it’s not much comfort
But it’s pretty simple
I’m far from hell
With just a little cash

Pour me ten drinks
'Cause I can pay cash right now
With just a little cash!

So I thank God
With endless gratitude
'Cause He gave me what I deserve
And that’s having a little cash

And I think He saved me
From others’ envy
From the threat of kidnapping
From betrayals and problems

My family is my wealth
And I’ve never humiliated anyone
I work without laziness
And I don’t brag about help

Whether I’m on the bus or walking
I get to where I need to go
A loyal and true friend
Envy doesn’t stick with me

Not a show-off, not conceited
Definitely not arrogant
In love, I’m well-liked
Very romantic and gallant

And I’m just what I seem
I never get into drama
The only thing I show
Is having a little cash

Not a show-off, not conceited
Definitely not arrogant
In love, I’m well-liked
Very romantic and gallant

And I’m just what I seem
I never get into drama
The only thing I show
Is having a little cash
