Esa nena yo la conocí
That girl I met one night
En la disco vino hacia mi
In the club she came into sight
Ella dijo vamos a bailar
She said let's dance, come on, let's go
Y después nos sentamos en el bar
Then we sat at the bar, nice and slow
Dijo que su nombre era Luz
She said her name was Luz, so bright
Vino de la ciudad de Veracruz
Came from Veracruz, a city of light
Vino de visita a la ciudad
She came to visit, just passing through
Y depuse no fuimos a pasear
And then we went for a stroll, just us two
(coro)
(chorus)
En mi carro ella se monto
In my car she climbed aboard
Y me dijo que volara yo
And told me to fly, to soar
Le di todo que yo le quise dar
I gave her all I wanted to share
Cuando la sirena pude escuchar
When the siren's wail filled the air
Ay la policía nos paro
Oh, the police stopped us there
La identificación nos pidió
Asked for ID, with a stare
Me dijeron que me iban arrestar
They said they'd take me away
Por tener una menor y por volar
For flying high with a minor that day
(coro)
(chorus)
