Bocas

Canción original Walter Ferguson, célebre calypsonian del Caribe costarricense, interpretada por "3 del Caribe Centroamericano" en el Jazz Café -- Escazú de San José, Costa Rica, en abril de 2011. "3DCC" es una iniciativa de los cantautores Guillermo Anderson (Honduras), Manuel Monestel (Costa Rica) y Rómulo Castro (Panamá) para promover la riqueza y la diversidad de la música del Caribe centroamericano, a partir de la tradición y de sus propias composiciones musicales. Se trata de una propuesta estética sencilla: 3 amigos en el escenario, acompañados por sus guitarras y un percusionista, interpretando lo mejor de su repertorio, contando historias, cantando viejos calipsos, parrandas garífunas, canciones con influencias afro-panameñas y trova contemporánea.


Well the Young gal say she do not want me no more
She told she friends Segundo too bloody poor
She going to a foreign land
(She) going to look for an Obeah man
I'm going to buy a pass
Packing up my things and going to Bocas

Well the Young gal say she do not want me no more,
She started to pitch me things out the door
She made me to understand
She will no support a calypsonian
I'm going to buy a pass
Packing up my things and going to Bocas

The Young gal say she do not want me no more,
She started to pitch me things out the door
She made me to understand
She will no support a calypsonian
I'm going to buy a pass
Packing up my things and going to Bocas

The Young gal say she do not want me no more,
She told she friends Segundo to bloody poor
She say she want she Money
She only live in a misery
I'm going to buy a pass
Packing up my things and going to Bocas
