1 A Caracas dice el tren, cuando viene de Los Teques
A Caracas, a Caracas, siempre llenito de gente
Pasa a veces por un túnel y otras veces por un puente
2 Cuando pasa por el túnel, siempre va muy lentamente
Con cuidado, despacito para no asustar la gente
Despacito, despacito, para no asustar la gente
3 Y cuando va por el puente, ya comienza a acelerar
Corre, corre, corre, corre, ya a Caracas va a llegar
Corre, corre, corre, corre, ya a Caracas va a llegar.
1. "To Caracas" says the train when it comes from Los Teques
To Caracas, to Caracas, always full of people,
Sometimes it passes through a tunnel and other times on a bridge.
2. When it passes through the tunnel, it always goes very slowly,
With care, very gently not to frighten people,
Very gently, very gently, not to frighten people.
3. And when it runs on the bridge, now it starts to speed up,
It runs, runs, runs, runs, in Caracas it's soon going to arrive,
It runs, runs, runs, runs, in Caracas it's soon going to arrive.

Thanks!
