Peppermint Jack

Chorus:Coro:

Hey, Peppermint JackHey, Menta Jack

Hey, Peppermint JackHey, Menta Jack

Hey, Peppermint JackHey, Menta Jack

Your hair is grayTu cabello es gris

And your skin is blackY tu piel es negra

Too old trey sayDemasiado viejo dicen

So you got the sackAsí que te despidieron

I recall that we used to buyRecuerdo que solíamos comprar

Pepperminds from a lovely guyMentas de un tipo encantador

He had worked for Icecream JoeHabía trabajado para Joe Helado

Till he was told he had to goHasta que le dijeron que debía irse

He said to himself this wise old man:Él se dijo a sí mismo este sabio anciano:

"Ice is gonna melt but peppermint can't"'El hielo se va a derretir pero la menta no'

So he said to us when we came to school:Así que nos dijo cuando íbamos a la escuela:

"Only peppermint really keeps you cool"'Solo la menta realmente te mantiene fresco'

"Only peppermint really keeps you cool"'Solo la menta realmente te mantiene fresco'

ChorusCoro

Then one day he didn't appearLuego un día él no apareció

When we heard why, we were in tearsCuando escuchamos por qué, lloramos

Poor old Jack, how little he earnedPobre viejo Jack, lo poco que ganaba

Went to the place of no returnFue al lugar del no retorno

With a piece of chalk we wrote on his stone:Con un trozo de tiza escribimos en su piedra:

"Ice is gonna melt, but peppermint won't"'El hielo se va a derretir, pero la menta no'

Never more we heard when we came to school:Nunca más escuchamos cuando íbamos a la escuela:

"Only peppermint really keeps you cool"'Solo la menta realmente te mantiene fresco'

"Only peppermint really keeps you cool"'Solo la menta realmente te mantiene fresco'

ChorusCoro

Peppermint, peppermint, peppermint JackMenta, menta, Menta Jack

Peppermint, peppermint, peppermint JackMenta, menta, Menta Jack

Peppermint, peppermint, peppermint JackMenta, menta, Menta Jack
