lyrics

Agüita de coco
Agüita de coco eee
Agüita de coco
Quítame la sed

Trabaja y trabaja
sin descansa’
Aunque la fatiga ataca
no puedo para’

Se me hace agua la boca
solo de pensa’
En una agüita de coco
pa’ mi sed calma aye

Tomo mi machete
y empiezo a trepar
una palmera tan alta
que al cielo va da’

Por el hueco de nube
quisiera escapa’
De los golpes de la vida
quién me va salva’?

Dulce agua bendita
líbrame del mal
Guíame por el camino
donde esté la paz

Ojalá cambie los tiempos
y pueda alcanza’
Una palmera tan alta
que al cielo va da’ aye,

Hay mi cocotero
Quítamela la sed

Bailando en el viento
Quítamela la sed

Subo la pendiente
Quítame la sed

El sol ta’ caliente
Quítame la sed

Ay San Juan bendito
Quítame la sed

Mándame un coquito
Quítame la sed

La carga es pesada
Quítame la sed

Oh como duele el alma
Quítame la sed
