Negro con rasgos de blanco
blanco con rasgos de negro
nunca quieras ocultar
lo que te viene de dentro.
En el fondo de la sangre
levvas dos sangres latiendo
nunca quieras apagar
el tambor de los abuelos.
Cha, cha, mulato
Cha, cha, mulato
Cha, cha, mulato venga esa mano
que haces chas, chas, en el tamboril.
Cha, cha, mulato
Cha, cha, mulato
Cha, cha, mulato venga esa mano
que haces chas, chas, en el tamboril.
Mezcla de negro y de blanco
mezcla de blanco y de negro
vamos, vamos de una vez
al tambor de los morenos.
Baila, baila, pero piensa
que la vida no es un juego
ni darse a la zamba,son
con dinero o sin dinero.
Cha, cha, mulato
Cha, cha, mulato
Cha, cha, mulato venga esa mano
que haces chas, chas, en el tamboril.
Cha, cha, mulato
Cha, cha, mulato
Cha, cha, mulato venga esa mano
que haces chas, chas, en el tamboril.
La vida no es mulato
cosa de sangre o de pelo
que el hombre piensa mejor
con el estomago lleno.
Baila, baila pero piensa
que debes poner el seso
para que piensen mejor
los hombres del mundo entero
