| Mama’s lying on the rotten ground
| Mamá está tirada en el suelo podrido
|
| There under the tree
| Allí debajo del árbol
|
| There were the stars in her eyes
| Había estrellas en sus ojos
|
| And Goldfingers in her hair
| Y Goldfingers en su cabello
|
| And I climbed over the garden wall
| Y trepé el muro del jardín
|
| Found her swelling in the well
| La encontré hinchada en el pozo
|
| Pulled her out onto the grass
| La sacó a la hierba
|
| And laid Curlies to her face
| Y puso Curlies en su cara
|
| To her face, to her face, to her face, to her face
| A su cara, a su cara, a su cara, a su cara
|
| My mama’s going to be gone soon
| Mi mamá se va a ir pronto
|
| Saw her fall like a fountain of dust
| La vi caer como una fuente de polvo
|
| She used to play me around the corner
| Ella solía jugar conmigo a la vuelta de la esquina
|
| She chased me to my soft, soft bed
| Ella me persiguió a mi suave, suave cama
|
| Soft, soft bed, soft, soft bed, soft, soft bed, soft, soft bed | Suave, suave cama, suave, suave cama, suave, suave cama, suave, suave cama |
