La Carcacha * |
The Old
Machine * (Selena) One! Two! Three! Four! What a dense cloud of smoke that chokes us People ask, nobody knows what it is And old car that comes flying down With tricycle wheel rims and the motor back to front And me waiting on the corner Like always, his loyal girlfriend My friends are teasing me They murmer things about him Don’t stop swaying Old machine, little by little Don’t leave us Old machine, step by step Don’t stop swaying Old machine, little by little Don’t leave us Look, girls, I don’t have regrets And I’m not ashamed of my young man either Although I’m poor and I have an old car He treats me like a queen, a real man And although I have an old machine What matters is that I go with him He’s not the most handsome of men either But he’s my loyal boyfriend |

Editor’s note: * According to the Real Academia Española, a Carcacha is an “old, useless or broken down machine apparatus or vehicle” (Chile, Mexico, Honduras, El Salvador and Venezuela)
