Lyrics translated into Español · See the original lyrics
Two lovers stop for kisses on a wallDos amantes se detienen para besarse en una pared
She asked him, Never leave meElla le pregunta, Nunca me dejes
He tells her that he won'tÉl le dice que no lo hará
But the boy is young and foolish and knows it allPero el chico es joven y tonto y lo sabe todo
And he puts it about when he goes outY se divierte cuando sale
Stories they get toldHistorias se cuentan
And stories, yeah stories get told...Y historias, sí, historias se cuentan...
It's in his nature, his misbehaviour, and misdemeanoursEs parte de su naturaleza, su mala conducta y sus fechorías
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toesEl chico no es ningún genio, la mantiene alerta
It's in his nature, his misbehaviour, and misdemeanoursEs parte de su naturaleza, su mala conducta y sus fechorías
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toesEl chico no es ningún genio, la mantiene alerta
And these lovers trip and stumble down the roadY estos amantes tropiezan y se tambalean por el camino
And on the grass they fumble round, like a flower their love growsY en el pasto se tambalean, como una flor su amor crece
And by the flower grows a weed and not the kind you smokeY junto a la flor crece una maleza y no del tipo que fumas
It raises up its ugly head, our lovers are in a chokeholdEleva su fea cabeza, nuestros amantes están en un estrangulamiento
Two lovers, two lovers in a hold...Dos amantes, dos amantes en un estrangulamiento...
It's in his nature, his misbehaviour, and misdemeanoursEs parte de su naturaleza, su mala conducta y sus fechorías
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toesEl chico no es ningún genio, la mantiene alerta
It's in his nature, his misbehaviour, and misdemeanoursEs parte de su naturaleza, su mala conducta y sus fechorías
The boy ain't no genius, he just keeps her on her toesEl chico no es ningún genio, solo la mantiene alerta
And I bet a bad thought don't cross her mindY apuesto a que un mal pensamiento no cruza su mente
And if it does she just discards it till it's gone awayY si lo hace, simplemente lo descarta hasta que desaparece
I bet of all of her she sees, she feelsApuesto a que de todo lo que ve, siente
There's somewhere that she stores it till it's gone awayHay un lugar donde lo guarda hasta que desaparece
Till it's gone awayHasta que desaparece
Till it's gone awayHasta que desaparece
It's in his nature, his misbehaviour, and misdemeanoursEs parte de su naturaleza, su mala conducta y sus fechorías
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toesEl chico no es ningún genio, la mantiene alerta
It's in his nature, his misbehaviour, and misdemeanoursEs parte de su naturaleza, su mala conducta y sus fechorías
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toesEl chico no es ningún genio, la mantiene alerta
It's in his nature, his misbehaviour, and misdemeanoursEs parte de su naturaleza, su mala conducta y sus fechorías
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toesEl chico no es ningún genio, la mantiene alerta
It's in his nature, his misbehaviour, and misdemeanoursEs parte de su naturaleza, su mala conducta y sus fechorías
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toesEl chico no es ningún genio, la mantiene alerta
On her toesEn alerta
Said the boy ain't no genius but he keeps her on her toesDijo que el chico no es ningún genio pero la mantiene alerta
Two lovers stop for kisses on a wallDos amantes se detienen para besarse en una pared
She asked him, Never leave meElla le pregunta, Nunca me dejes
He tells her that he won'tÉl le dice que no lo hará
