Lyrics translated into Español · See the original lyrics

You've got to save all your money to buy a new carTienes que ahorrar todo tu dinero para comprar un auto nuevo

You've got to show everybody how you got where you areTienes que mostrar a todos cómo llegaste a donde estás

You need a steam and dry iron to press your clothesNecesitas una plancha de vapor y seca para planchar tu ropa

You've got to show everyone how you know what goesTienes que mostrar a todos cómo sabes lo que va

They're saying oh you've got to keep it upDicen que debes mantenerte firme

Don't be a fool with your moneyNo seas tonto con tu dinero

You've got to save before you can spend all your cashDebes ahorrar antes de gastar todo tu efectivo

I'm only telling you for your own goodSolo te lo digo por tu propio bien

You're at the top andEstás en la cima

You know that's where you want to stayY sabes que es donde quieres quedarte

Everybody says that it's better that wayTodos dicen que es mejor así

Everyone says that nothing seems to make any differenceTodos dicen que nada parece marcar la diferencia

You got where you are cos you're sitting on the fenceLlegaste a donde estás porque estás en la cerca

They're saying oh you've got to keep it upDicen que debes mantenerte firme

Oh you've got to keep it upOh, debes mantenerte firme

Don't be a fool with your moneyNo seas tonto con tu dinero

You've got to save before you can spendDebes ahorrar antes de gastar

It's going to be much better for you in the endSerá mucho mejor para ti al final

I'm only telling you for your own goodSolo te lo digo por tu propio bien

Well everybody says that that's o.k.Todos dicen que está bien

You've got to get there in your own wayDebes llegar allí a tu manera

And everybody says that that's all rightY todos dicen que está bien

You've got to do what you think is rightDebes hacer lo que crees correcto

And all those bad boys thereY todos esos chicos malos allí

They're going to get you in the darkTe van a atrapar en la oscuridad

They're saying, Oh you've got to keep it upDicen, Oh, debes mantenerte firme

Oh you've got to keep it upOh, debes mantenerte firme
