Sailor Marinero
Ooh - soy marinero
Ooh - soy marinero*
When I was a boy I would always dream about the sea
I could picture myself on a sailing ship
With the sun shining down on me
Looking through my history books for adventure and
happiness
As in how to discover America
Through Columbus and through Cortes
But life is a tombolita, so be what you want to be
And love is a senorita waiting across the sea
Soy marinero - amante de vida
No tengo dinero - pero mucho amor
Soy marinero - gitano de la onda
Soy el rico senador el viajador del agua**
Soon I was a bigger boy and I was certain to be a man
For I would look at the girls in a different way
And they all seemed to understand
Looking out of my classroom window
Gazing across the sea
I would say to myself in a deeper voice
"The sea is the place for me"
For life is a tombolita, so be what you want to be
And love is a senorita waiting across the sea
(Repeat chorus)
Ooh - soy marinero
Oooh - soy marinero
para todas las chicas - hay un marinero***
Ooh - soy marinero
Oooh - soy marinero
But life is a tombolita, so be what you want to be
And love is a senorita waiting across the sea
(Repeat chorus twice)
Soy el rico senador el viajador del agua
Soy el rico senador el viajador marinero!
