Traducción de la letra de la canción Ma Says, Pa Says with Doris Day - Johnnie Ray

Ma Says, Pa Says with Doris Day (original)

Go tell your mother, you’re stepping out with me, Say that we’ll be dancing and
you won’t be home 'til three.
Go tell your father he needn’t pace the floor, Promise at the stroke of three
you’ll tip toe through the door.
I told my mother and, I told my father and
They (Yes?), say… (What did they say?)Ma says, Pa says, we must keep on
dancing, Ma says, Pa says, we must keep on dancing, For if we keep on dancing,
we won’t start romancing, But if we start romancing, we won’t keep on dancing.
Go tell your mother, I’m taking you out to dine
Tell her this here restaurant the cooking is divine
Go tell your father, You’ve got an appetite
Say that you’re so hungry you could eat all through the night.
I told my mother and, I told my father and
They (Yes?), say… (What did they say?)Ma says, Pa says, we must keep on eating
Ma says, Pa says, we must keep on eating
For if we keep on eating, our lips can’t be meeting, But if our lips are
meeting, we won’t keep on eating.
Go tell your mother, tonight you’ve got a
date;
Say that you and I will be attending a little debate.
Go tell your father, I’m gonna make a speech
Say the lecture will be held upon a sandy beach.
I told my mother and, I told my father and
They (Yes?), say… (What did they say?)Ma says, Pa says, we must keep on
talking
Ma says, Pa says we must keep on talking
For if we keep on talking, we won’t go out walking
But if we go out walking, we won’t keep on talking.
We’ll date and debate
We’ll meet and eat
We’ll walk and talk beneath the moon’Cos Ma says, Pa says,… We can marry soon

Ma Says, Pa Says with Doris Day (traducción)

Ve y dile a tu madre que sales conmigo, Dile que vamos a bailar y
no estarás en casa hasta las tres.
Ve y dile a tu padre que no necesita pasearse por el piso, promételo al golpe de tres
atravesarás la puerta de puntillas.
Le dije a mi madre y, le dije a mi padre y
Ellos (¿Sí?), dicen… (¿Qué dijeron?) Mamá dice, Papá dice, debemos seguir
bailando, dice mamá, dice papá, hay que seguir bailando, porque si seguimos bailando,
no empezamos a tener romances, pero si empezamos a tener romances, no seguiremos bailando.
Ve a decirle a tu madre que te llevo a cenar
Dile que este restaurante aquí la cocina es divina
Ve a decirle a tu padre, tienes apetito
Di que tienes tanta hambre que podrías comer toda la noche.
Le dije a mi madre y, le dije a mi padre y
Ellos (¿Sí?), dicen… (¿Qué dijeron?) Mamá dice, Papá dice, hay que seguir comiendo
Mamá dice, papá dice, debemos seguir comiendo
Porque si seguimos comiendo, nuestros labios no pueden estar juntándose, pero si nuestros labios están
reunión, no seguiremos comiendo.
Ve a decirle a tu madre, esta noche tienes un
fecha;
Di que tú y yo asistiremos a un pequeño debate.
Ve a decirle a tu padre, voy a hacer un discurso
Digamos que la conferencia se llevará a cabo en una playa de arena.
Le dije a mi madre y, le dije a mi padre y
Ellos (¿Sí?), dicen… (¿Qué dijeron?) Mamá dice, Papá dice, debemos seguir
hablando
Mamá dice, papá dice que debemos seguir hablando
Porque si seguimos hablando, no saldremos a caminar
Pero si salimos a caminar, no seguiremos hablando.
Saldremos y debatiremos
nos encontraremos y comeremos
Caminaremos y hablaremos bajo la luna porque mamá dice, papá dice... Podemos casarnos pronto
