La Bola (Pelotero A La Bola) Lyrics in English La Adictiva

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Bola (Pelotero A La Bola) by La Adictiva from Spanish to English.
Ballplayer to the ball
Ballplayer to the ball
And with this tune we knock it out of the park
Who? Well, La Adictiva from Mesillas
Ballplayer to the ball
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes, the ball
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Let the ball keep going, keep going, keep going
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Let the ball keep going
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Tell the ballplayer that he should stop the ball
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
That it stops again
That it stops once again
That it stops three times
And all good
And at bat is the Titan Adrián González
Come on, buddy
Fan, fan, fan
Tiny fan, no way
How my fan blows
Tiny fan, no way
My fan broke
Tiny fan, no way
Little roller to first
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Little roller to second
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Hit-and-run play
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Let the ball keep going
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
It goes, it goes, it goes, the ball
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes, the ball
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Tell the ballplayer that he should stop the ball
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
That it stops again
That it stops once again
That it stops ten times
That the ball stops
But not the party
Let it keep going!
Rumbero, rumbero, rumbero
I'm the rumba guy
How I dance my little rumba
I'm the rumba guy
Dance, dance my little rumba
I'm the rumba guy
Rumbero, come dance
I'm the rumba guy
Let the ball keep going
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes, the ball
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
It goes, it goes, it goes, the ball
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Tell the ballplayer that he should stop the ball
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
That it stops again
That it stops once again
That it stops a hundred times
That it stops as many times as it wants
After all, we've got to enjoy
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
Pa-piri-pa-piri-pa
And at bat, the designated hitter

SONG MEANING

“La Bola (Pelotero A La Bola)” is a loud, brass-filled invitation to a double celebration: baseball and a non-stop dance party. Throughout the lyrics La Adictiva uses baseball jargon – pelotero (player), hit and run, al bat – to set a playful sports scene, then flips it into a metaphor for keeping the music and good vibes rolling. Listeners are urged to “keep the ball going” while the horns blare the contagious pa-piri-pa chorus, making it clear that even if the ball pauses, the fiesta never should.

The shout-outs to Mexican baseball hero Adrián “Titán” González ground the song in national pride, while the repeated calls to rumberos (party-people) open the floor to everyone. In short, the track says: swing big, dance harder, and enjoy every inning of life – because, total, hay que disfrutar – the point is to have fun!
