LYRICS:
Estoy enamorado de La Catrina
Pero ella no sabe lo que siento
Estoy cantando de ti Catrina
Por que quiero verme como ella

Estoy mirando a mi Catrina
Pero puede ella verme sin dos ojos?
Estoy pensando en ti Catrina
Y mis pies quieren bailar a Mexico

CHORUS
Catrina, La Catrina
Calavera Señorita
Catrina, La Catrina
Si yo me muero, estaría contigo

Si un día nos encontramos Catrina
Y bailamos con las flores en tu cabeza
Si un día estoy tan flaca, un calavera
Muraría una señora muy feliz

Si caminamos por las calles del cielo
O nos sentamos en las nubes con los ángeles
Te pediría que volvieras conmigo
Porque la muerte es lo que trae la vida

CHORUS


TRANSLATION:

I'm in love with "La Catrina"
But she doesn't know how I feel
I'm singing about La Catrina
Because I want to look like her

I'm looking at La Catrina
But can she even see me without eyes?
I'm thinking of you La Catrina
And my feet want to dance all the way to Mexico

CHORUS
Catrina, La Catrina
Little skull mistress
Catrina, La Catrina
If I die, I would be with you

If one day we meet, Catrina
And we dance with the flowers on your head
If one day I got as skinny as a skeleton
I would die a happy dead lady ...then

If we walked the streets of heaven
Or sat in clouds with the angels
I would ask you to return to earth with me
Because it is death that brings us life

Chorus ...
