lyrics

GUAGUA
En una bestia de seis patas
30 tipos sin corbata
se montaron en la aventura
más barata
De Cali con sabrosura
De Pasto hasta Santa Marta
Cartagena, Medellín
Y Bogotá que nunca falta
Ay corre jiiiii
Ay corre jiiii
Ay corre jiiii
Que esto se va prender
La bestia nunca paraba
La cordillera cruzaba
Con alas de chontaduro
Avanzaba
El viento parecía espuma
La tierra un tamal caliente
Papaya en el precipicio
Era la fruta más frecuente
Toma la guagua María
Que ahí viene la policía
Quieren Papaya Raquel
Mejor arrancá a correr
Las entrañas se salían
Los calzones se escondían
La miradas de los niños
Se reían y morían
Era tierra de berracos
De montañas, de paracos
Los milicos parecían
Pajarracos
Toma la guagua María
Que ahí viene la policía
Quieren papaya Raquel
Mejor arrancá a correr
Tanto lío y tanto esfuerzo
Tanta papaya partida
Cada uno por su lado
No servía
La cosa es que allá en Colombia
Bien les gusta la papaya
Y en verdad y aunque no crea
Eso les daña
Ay corre jiiiii hay corre
Ay corre jiiiiii hay José
Ay corre jiiiii hay corre
Que esto se va a prender
Toma la guagua María
Que ahí viene la policía
Quieren papaya Raquel
Mejor arrancá a correr
Hay de ti,
Horizonte sin fronteras
Vuelve a mi
cuando renazcan las palmeras
Hay de ti
Corazón de canto nuevo
Vuelve a mi
Si tu camino es culebrero

Gypsy Kumbia Orchestra image

Gypsy Kumbia Orchestra Montreal, Québec

Montreal’s GKO is an explosion of music and dance, circus and imagination.

Part of the international cumbiero movement, fusioning Colombian Caribbean rhythms and percussions with different influences from around the world into a creative chaos that makes people dance.

A uniquely recipe, connecting disparate cultures and traditions through the common thread of cumbia's rhythmic language. ... more
