Reinas de la baraja = The queen of spades Matches base text
Language: Spanish (Español)
Si tu mare quiere una reina La baraja tiene cuatro, La de copas, la de oros, La de espadas, la de bastos. Corre que te pillo, Corre que te agarro, Mira que te lleno La cara de barro. Del olivo me retiro, Del esparto yo me aparto, Del sarmiento me arrepiento De haberte querido tanto.
