La mula que yo mente la monto hoy mi compadre. Eso a mi no me importa pues yo la mon te primero. ("Oivey!")
"Show me a cowboy who rides side saddle and I will show you a gay ranchero!" ("Coplas!")

[Chorus] "Now the naughty verses!

La noche que me case. No pudde dormirme un rato. Por estar toda la noche corriendos detras de un gato.
Me dejiste que fue un gato. Que entro por tu balcon. Yo no visto gato prieto con sombrero y pantalon! (Pantalones Caliente) No more drinks for the dwarf!---On my wedding night, I did not sleep a wink. ("Porque?") So, I changed to Sanka!" ("Coplas!")

[Chorus]

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Kingston Trio è un gruppo musicale statunitense formatosi nel 1957 a San Francisco, California. Composto da Dave Guard (voce e chitarra), Bob Shane (voce e banjo) e Nick Reynolds (voce e chitarra), il trio ha contribuito in modo significativo al folk revival degli anni '50 e '60. Il loro stile musicale era caratterizzato da arrangiamenti armonici raffinati, un mix di canzoni tradizionali folk americane e brani originali, spesso con testi ironici o satirici. Il successo del Kingston Trio fu enorme: hanno venduto milioni di dischi, hanno avuto numerosi successi in classifica, tra cui "Tom Dooley", "M-T-M" e "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?", e sono stati ospiti di programmi televisivi popolari come "The Ed Sullivan Show". Il loro impatto sul panorama musicale americano fu notevole, contribuendo a diffondere la musica folk a un pubblico più ampio. Dopo diversi cambiamenti nella formazione nel corso degli anni, il gruppo si è sciolto nel 1967. Bob Shane ha continuato a esibirsi con una nuova formazione del Kingston Trio fino alla sua morte nel 2020.
