Pitán Pitán [English translation]

Close to the docks where Soledad lives

A man wakes up early to work

Has a light coffee so that he's on time

Kisses his old lady, he crosses himself at the altar

He's leaving and leaving, leaving to fish

With his paddle he's dressed of immensity

And on Sunday morning the city awakens

He's a fortunate man who goes to the church to pray

He gives thanks for what has happened, and for what's to come too

And he prays for his team that will play on that afternoon

And he's leaving and leaving, he's leaving to sing

And once again he paints his dream in blue and red

And he's leaving and leaving, he's leaving to scream

Pescaíto plays, Soledad's son

Sing at the stadium if your team is winning

And if they're losing, keep singing

The sirens sound, the banana cyclone blows

My Unión Magdalena, you know how much I love you

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - The drummers play

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - Now that the game's starting

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - Those leathers roll

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - My town is so happy

The fans from Guajira, way up there by general shadows

With the marshmen playing the ba-dum - ba-dum

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - The drummers play

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - Accompanying the game

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - The pipers are singing

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - My town is so happy

(x2)

Hat-wearer, hat-wearer

Remove your hat

(x2)

If you don't remove it

I'll throw it on the floor

I'm bringing you guys bonito and shrimp from the bar

Bringing the fresh sierra, with the lisa and the mojarra

I have red grouper that was caught this morning

If you don't buy it, let your sister buy it then

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - Oh, I had a dream last night

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - That we were little

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - And our grandpas were around

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - My town was so happy

(x4)

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - The drummers play

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - Accompanying the game

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - Those leathers roll

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum - My town is so happy

(x8)

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum
