Negra No Me Celes Tanto

Music: Don't Be So Jealous, Black Woman
Singer: Carlos Vives

When I leave my house
and I take a while in the street
Don't worry Anita,
because you know very well
that I like to party and
I have many friends.

And if I don't return in the afternoon,
I'll be back the next day in the morning. (x2)

If I meet a friend
who offers me her affection
I tell her that I love her,
but not with all my heart
I only lend her
my heart for a little while.

All those are passing loves,
and I always return home complete. (x2)

Chorus:
Don't be so jealous, black woman
let me enjoy life (x2)
you live resentful with me,
but I cheer you up with my song. (x2)

When I go out to party
many times I get distracted
with some little friends,
but I never forget you
because our hearts
can no longer be separated.

It's just that I want you to rest,
so I can always have you well preserved. (x2)

As you already know me,
I thank you for forgiving me
if I return a little late,
when I arrive home
I want to see you very happy
caring and accommodating.

But never receive me with disdain,
because then I'll have to leave again.

Chorus
Don't be so jealous, black woman
let me enjoy life (x2)
you live resentful with me
but I cheer you up with my song. (x2)
