No Habla
Sun-Kissed Confessions: No Habla's Spirited Journey South
Lyrics
Man we had this planned for months
Preparation for the trip had been arranged well in advance.
We'd fly down here and have some fun
The plan was to travel and enjoy.
And she knew every word from hola to adios
The woman was familiar with basic Spanish greetings from "hello" to "goodbye."
I had two tickets, but she never showed
Despite having two tickets, the woman didn't show up.
So pour me another, Mr. Caballero
Asking the bartender for another drink.
I hope you don't mind, I got no more dinero
Expressing lack of money to pay for more drinks.
I ain't worked in a month
Admitting not having worked for a month.
I've been down here in the sun drinking
Spending time in the sunny location drinking alcohol.
Margaritas, kissing señoritas
Enjoying margaritas and kissing women.
And I think I need another shot of tequila
Expressing the need for another shot of tequila.
I got a long way to go
Feeling there's a long journey ahead.
Sorry no habla Español
Apologizing for not speaking Spanish.
Man, you sure do fix them strong
Complimenting the bartender on the strength of the drinks.
I've forgotten what all went wrong
Forgetting past troubles or issues while drinking.
Last night a girl whispered in my ear "Mi amor"
A woman expressed affection in Spanish ("my love").
I don't know what that means but I want more
Despite not knowing the meaning, the person desires more affection.
So pour me another, Mr. Caballero
Requesting another drink from Mr. Caballero.
I hope you don't mind, I got no more dinero
Expressing lack of money again for drinks.
I ain't worked in a month
Reiterating not having worked for a month.
I've been down here in the sun drinking
Spending time in the sunny location drinking alcohol.
Margaritas, kissing señoritas
Enjoying margaritas and kissing women.
And I think I need another shot of tequila
Expressing the need for another shot of tequila.
I got a long way to go
Feeling there's a long journey ahead.
Sorry no habla Español
Apologizing for not speaking Spanish again.
So if I start to talk more despacito
Referencing speaking slowly (despacito) and making new friends.
Start to follow all my new amigos
Intending to follow the lead of newfound friends.
So pour me another, Mr. Caballero
Requesting another drink from Mr. Caballero.
I hope you don't mind, I got no more dinero
Expressing lack of money for drinks once more.
I ain't worked in a month
Reiterating not having worked for a month.
I've been down here in the sun drinking
Spending time in the sunny location drinking alcohol.
Margaritas, kissing señoritas
Enjoying margaritas and kissing women.
And I think I need another shot of tequila
Expressing the need for another shot of tequila.
I got a long way to go
Feeling there's a long journey ahead.
Sorry no habla Español
Apologizing for not speaking Spanish again, identifying as a non-Spanish-speaking foreigner.
I'm just a long-legged Gringo
Admitting to being a non-Spanish-speaking foreigner.
Sorry no habla Español
Reiterating the apology for not speaking Spanish.
