Lyrics
There are many various verses to La Cucaracha that have been created over the years, but this is the standard refrain:
Spanish
La cucaracha, la cucaracha, ya no puede caminar porque no tiene, porque le falta las dos patitas de atrás. |
English
The cockroach, the cockroach, can't walk anymore because it doesn't have, because it's lacking its two back legs. |
