Letras de A Little with Sugar - Walter Becker, Donald Fagen

A Little with Sugar (original)

I remember Christmas morning back in 1954
When we moved her to Mount Savage as if it mattered anymore
Mama always said
How the air can clear her head
We were colder and much higher than we ever were before
I recall her tailored jersey and the flowers that she wore
Years ago I tried to tell her
What was in my heart
But she was part of the city
(She took a little with sugar) She took a little with sugar
(She took the money from my old man) She took the money from my old man
(She took a little with sugar) Ohhhh yes she did
(She took the money from my old man)
All the years that she was with us you could count them on one hand
I was taken with her showboat style, but too young to understand
She was all alone
Ahead of her time
She was first generation
(She took a little with sugar) She took a little with sugar
(She took the money from my old man) She took the money from my old man
(She took a little with sugar) Ohhhh yes she did
(She took the money from my old man)
(Took a little with sugar)
(She took a little with sugar)
(She took a little with sugar)
(She took a little with sugar) She took the money from my old man
(She took the money from my old man) She took a little with sugar
(She took the money from my old man) Ohhhh, She took the money from my old man
(She took the money from my old man) Ohhhh yes she did
(She took the money from my old man) I said
(She took a little with sugar) She took a little with sugar
(She took a little with sugar) Ohhhh, she took the money from my old man
(She took a little with sugar) Ohhhh yes she did
(She took a little with sugar) She took the money from my old man
(She took the money from my old man) The money from my old man
(She took the money from my old man) Ohhhh yes she did
(She took the money from my old man) She took a little with sugar
(She took the money from my old man) Ohhhhhhhh
(She took a little with sugar)
(She took a little with sugar)
(She took a little with sugar)
(She took a little with sugar) Money from my old man
(She took the money from my old man) She took a little with sugar
(She took the money from my old man) She took the money from my old man

(traducción)

Recuerdo la mañana de Navidad allá por 1954
Cuando la trasladamos a Mount Savage como si ya no importara
Mamá siempre decía
Cómo el aire puede despejar su cabeza
Estábamos más fríos y mucho más altos que nunca antes
Recuerdo su jersey sastre y las flores que llevaba
Hace años traté de decirle
que habia en mi corazon
Pero ella era parte de la ciudad
(Tomó un poco con azúcar) Tomó un poco con azúcar
(Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo) Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo
(Ella tomó un poco con azúcar) Ohhhh sí lo hizo
(Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo)
Todos los años que estuvo con nosotros se los podía contar con los dedos de una mano
Me cautivó su estilo espectacular, pero demasiado joven para entender
ella estaba sola
Adelantada a su tiempo
ella era primera generacion
(Tomó un poco con azúcar) Tomó un poco con azúcar
(Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo) Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo
(Ella tomó un poco con azúcar) Ohhhh sí lo hizo
(Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo)
(Se tomó un poco con azúcar)
(Se tomó un poco con azúcar)
(Se tomó un poco con azúcar)
(Tomó un poco con azúcar) Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo
(Ella tomó el dinero de mi viejo) Ella tomó un poco con azúcar
(Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo) Ohhhh, Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo
(Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo) Ohhhh sí lo hizo
(Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo) Dije
(Tomó un poco con azúcar) Tomó un poco con azúcar
(Tomó un poco con azúcar) Ohhhh, le quitó el dinero a mi viejo
(Ella tomó un poco con azúcar) Ohhhh sí lo hizo
(Tomó un poco con azúcar) Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo
(Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo) El dinero a mi viejo
(Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo) Ohhhh sí lo hizo
(Ella tomó el dinero de mi viejo) Ella tomó un poco con azúcar
(Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo) Ohhhhhhhh
(Se tomó un poco con azúcar)
(Se tomó un poco con azúcar)
(Se tomó un poco con azúcar)
(Tomó un poco con azúcar) Dinero de mi viejo
(Ella tomó el dinero de mi viejo) Ella tomó un poco con azúcar
(Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo) Le quitó el dinero a mi viejo
