Lyrics
(bendición) (abuela)
Mi abuela dijo! (dijo!) Mi abuela dijo! (dijo!)
"Never chase what can walk, mija, let it go"
Mi abuela dijo! (dijo!) Mi abuela dijo! (dijo!)
"Si es pa' ti, ni aunque te quites. You'll know."
Ninety years old, four foot ten, never wrong
I put everything she told me in a song
Plátanos fryin' and the radio on low
Bata with the flowers, chancla by the stove (cuidao)
She never learned to read but she could read a man in seconds
Mi abuela dijo! (dijo!) Mi abuela dijo! (dijo!)
"Never chase what can walk, mija, let it go"
Mi abuela dijo! (dijo!) Mi abuela dijo! (dijo!)
"Si es pa' ti, ni aunque te quites. You'll know."
When I got my heart broke, I came in the door loud
She ain't hug me. Handed me a onion. "Chop. Now." (ay)
I'm cryin' in the sofrito, she just stirrin', sayin' nothin'
By the time the rice was done, I forgot what I was huffin'
That's the medicine. Hands busy. Mouth shut. Eat.
Then she said "you think you the first one? Take a seat."
Told me stories 'bout my grandpa I can't put in a verse
Turns out she was me. Turns out she was worse. (¡abuela!)
Ella me enseñó que el orgullo no es maldad
Es saber lo que uno vale. Y ya. Esa es la verdad.
Bendición, abuela...
"Dios te bendiga, mija. Now eat."
(MI ABUELA DIJO!)
Mi abuela dijo! (dijo!) Mi abuela dijo! (dijo!)
"Never chase what can walk, mija, let it go"
Mi abuela dijo! (dijo!) Mi abuela dijo! (dijo!)
"Si es pa' ti, ni aunque te quites. You'll know."
Ninety years old, four foot ten, never wrong
She can't read this. So I made it a song.

Uptown, Dyckman and 207th. Raised under the dryers of her mother's salon on St. Nicholas, where she learned harmony from the radio and attitude from the women. Sings in English, cusses you out in Spanish, and the switch is the hook.
