I thought it would be fun to get this song translated online. And like the old
adage, it loses something in the the translation.
In the Water Maria Christina she loves me to control
and I follow her I follow her running,

Í'll meet you in the morning. (In the morning)
Í'll take you to the seashore. (To the beach)
Wé'll play among the sand dunes. (In the dunes)
Í'll throw you into the water. (In the water !?)
Chorus:
That's a no, no, no, no, no, Maria Christina say no, say no, say no, say no.
It was because Maria Christina wants to me to control (Yes if she does not have)
She wants to me to control. (Ay I go away) She wants to me to control.
Í'll meet you in the evening. (At night)
Í'll take you to the party. (To the celebration)
Wé'll walk along the pool side. (And like a jackal)
Í'll throw you in the to water. (In the water !?)
to chorus
Maria Christina loves me to control and I follow her I follow the current, Maria Christina wants people, Maria Christina wants to me to control.
