    Lyrics and Music: Serafina de Milla

    I am the stuttering pie, pie-pie
    Who who who comes from Carrizal
    W-w-when I go along the road
    I s-sing joyfully this song of mine.

    I want to marry an Indian girl
    Who who who can cook
    I offer to whoever accompanies me
    That she will never lack anything.

    I have a ranch with a hearth
    Well smeared with l-l-lime
    With j-j-jugs and pans
    That I brought from Pínula.

    Who who buys the good ropes
    I carry b-b-bridles, ties, and girths
    I also carry f-f-forks
    Baskets and many other things.
