Another rhyme from our series Nursery Rhymes from around the world. La Cucaracha (Spanish for The Cockroach) is a traditional Spanish folk corrido that became popular in Mexico during the Mexican Revolution.\rbr\rbrWe do not speak Spanish, but have found this rhyme mesmerizing. Please do bear with us if you find any pronunciation faults. We have tried very hard to make this as authentic as possible.\rbr\rbrWe love Mexican food but have just found out their music rocks too!!! Wishing everyone in Mexico well..\rbr\rbrLa cucaracha, la cucaracha,\rbrya no puede caminar,\rbrporque no tiene, porque le falta\rbruna pata para andar\rbr\rbrLas muchachas son de oro;\rbrLas casadas son de plata;\rbry las viudas son de cobre,\rbrY las viejas oja de lata. \rbr\rbrLas muchachas son de oro;\rbrLas casadas son de plata;\rbry las viudas son de cobre,\rbrlas viejas oja de lata. \rbr\rbrLa cucaracha, la cucaracha,\rbrya no puede caminar,\rbrporque no tiene, porque le falta\rbrmarihuana que fumar.
