El misterio estaba allí
The mystery was there
En aquella casa color ladrillo
In that brick-colored house
Un faro rojo en la puerta
A red headlight on the door
Y un letrero amarillo
And a yellow sign
Era una abarroteria de amor
It was a grocery store of love
Unos billetes para conocer el sabor
A few tickets to know the taste
De una cama compartida
From a shared bed
Con damas sin nombre
With unnamed ladies
Con el fantasma de la virginidad
With the Ghost of Virginity
El ahorro perdió la dignidad
Saving lost dignity
Rompí la alcancía
I broke the piggy bank
Toque la puerta y entre
Knock on the door and enter
No hubo celos ni suegras
There was no jealousy or mothers-in-law
Ni tuve que invitarlas al cine
I didn't even have to invite them to the movies.
No hubo escenas in cuñados
There were no scenes in brothers-in-law
Y menos un maldito abogado
And less a damn lawyer
Era todo democracia
It was all democracy
No había edad ni clases sociales
There was no age or social classes
Si cumplías con la tarifa
If you met the rate
Tenias tu pedacito de cielo
You had your little piece of heaven
Cuatro besos, medio kilo de amor
Four kisses, half a kilo of love
Dos abrazos y un litro de sudor
Two hugs and a liter of sweat
Una abarroteria de amor
A groceries of love
Allí encontré a mi maestro de escuela
There I found my school teacher
A un ginecologo y a un intelectual
To a gynecologist and an intellectual
A tres cantautores borrachos
Three drunken singer-songwriters
Y a un gobernador
And a governor
No te pongas nervioso me dijo
Don't get nervous he told me
Una chica vestida de rojo
A girl dressed in red
Entre a su cuarto hecho un chiquillo
Enter his room made a child
Y al salir fui un señor
And when I left I was a gentleman.
En la escuela me hablaban de colon
At school they told me about colon
Y de las tablas de multiplicacion
And multiplication tables
Pero no mencionaron
But they didn't mention
Como es que se hace el amor
How love is made
No hubo celos ni suegras
There was no jealousy or mothers-in-law
Ni tuve que invitarlas al cine
I didn't even have to invite them to the movies.
No hubo escenas in cuñados
There were no scenes in brothers-in-law
Y menos un maldito abogado
And less a damn lawyer
Era todo democracia
It was all democracy
No había edad ni clases sociales
There was no age or social classes
Si cumplías con la tarifa
If you met the rate
Tenias tu pedacito de cielo
You had your little piece of heaven
Cuatro besos, medio kilo de amor
Four kisses, half a kilo of love
Dos abrazos y un litro de sudor
Two hugs and a liter of sweat
Una abarroteria de amor
A groceries of love
