El cariño que te tengo Yo no lo puedo negar Se me sale la babita Yo no lo puedo evitar. Cuando Juanica y Chan Chan En el mar cernían arena Como sacudía el ‘jibe’ A Chan Chan le daba pena. Limpia el camino de paja Que yo me quiero sentar En aquel tronco que veo Y así no puedo llegar. De Alto Cedro voy para Marcané Luego a Cueto voy para Mayarí. (English) I’m going from Alto Cedro to Marcané Then from Cueto, I’m going to Mayarí. The love I have for you I cannot deny My mouth is watering I just can’t help myself. When Juanika and Chan Chan Sifted sand together on the beach How her bottom shook and Chan Chan was aroused! Clean the dry sugar cane leaves from the path So I can get to that trunk I want to sit down. I’m going from Alto Cedro to Marcané Then from Cueto, I’m going to Mayarí. #BuenaVistaSocialClub #ChanChan #Cuba
