Playa Y Pena
Los Wawanco
Beach and Sorrow
After the coconut rice
He lit his black tobacco
He drank his coffee in a calabash
Mixed with sugarcane rum
In pants and jacket
And a sailor's cap
To dance in the cumbiamba
Or in search of cumbia dancers
Cinnamon-skinned girlfriend
Don't wait for the sailor
They killed him out of jealousy
In the middle of the cumbia
Cinnamon-skinned girlfriend
Don't wait for the sailor
They killed him out of jealousy
In the middle of the cumbia
They found him looking at the sky
The bed of sand and water
Dagger sunk in his chest
With the moon in his gaze
There won't be a boat waiting
With its sails unfurled
With coffee and cigarettes
Sugarcane rum and his guitar
Cinnamon-skinned girlfriend
Don't wait for the sailor
They killed him out of jealousy
In the middle of the cumbia
Cinnamon-skinned girlfriend
Don't wait for the sailor
They killed him out of jealousy
In the middle of the cumbia
Cinnamon-skinned girlfriend
Don't wait for the sailor
They killed him out of jealousy
In the middle of the cumbia
Cinnamon-skinned girlfriend
Don't wait for the sailor
They killed him out of jealousy
In the middle of the cumbia
