Mariá

Where are you going with that damn bundle, Mariá
In the well, there's only water to drink
Little water, leaves the clothes half washed, Mariá
Washing clothes, I still need to learn

Put less fabric in that bundle, Mariá
These days, there's no water to waste
Take the blanket, I need that blanket
Open the bundle, put the blanket in
Take the blanket to wash - repeat

I already said, it won't work at the well
Go to the salty creek, I dug a hole there

The creek water is really clean
You can wash the whole bundle if the soap doesn't run out
