Pero Raquel

by Leo Dan

I remember one of my dad's friends singing this just about every time he saw me (b/c my name is... Raquel! ^_^)


Here are the lyrics in English (not a literal translation, just trying to get the meaning across)

Oh Raquel
Raquel let me go out
Don't be cruel Raquel
Don't be cruel my Raquelita (little Raquel)
(repeat)

When she met my girlfriend
Raquel pulled a face
and she told me
not to stay out late

(chorus 2x)

She treats me like I'm a baby
I don't like it at all
You've got to understand me
Dearest Raquelita

(chorus 2x)

All the guys are in love
In love with Raqueluchita*
But she won't let me have
one little girlfriend

(chorus 2x)

*another endearment for the name Raquel, one that my dad uses on occasion ;-)
