Walk the streets of Mexico
Full of people singing along,
A little story with a lot of heart
That can be enjoyed in this song.
In a small house was a cockroach
Who was very poor and thin,
And to his misfortune without shoes
Not a shirt had he to cover him.
He asked the tailor: "Sir, oh Sir
Would you make me a suit?
And then he could go to a party
To find a bride.
The tailor accepted and happily started
At the time that the cockroach arrived,
And while he was taking some measurements
The cockroach fled and left.
The poor tailor didn´t know what to do
And he ran after the cockroach
But he was nowhere to be found
And he had already run away.
The cockroach went to a dance,
Where was the cream of society
And attired with great elegance,
He wore socks and also spats.
The ladies liked him very much,
They gave him hugs and kisses
And the cockroach was very happy,
And the happy cockroaches jumped.
