Lyrics and translation Chuy Vega - Dos Amigos

Dos Amigos

Estos eran dos amigos
Que venían de Mapimil
Que por no venirse de oquis
Robaron Huanasebil

Ellos traiban dos caballos
Un oscuro y un jovero
El oscuro cargan ropa
Y en el jovero dinero

También traiban maquinaria
Y muy buenas baterías
Para desclavar los rieles
Y hacer los cambios de vía

Martín le dice a José
No te pongas amarillo
Vamos a robar el tren
Que viene de Bermejillo

Amarillo no me pongo
Amarillo es mi color
He robado trenes grandes
Y máquinas de vapor

Válgame el santo niñito
Ya agarraron a José
En la esquina del mercado
Lo ataron y se les fue

Seria por sus oraciones
Que su madre le rezaba
Seria por su buena suerte
Que a José no le tocaba

Two Friends

These two friends
Were from Mapimil
And to avoid being poor
They stole from Huanasebil

They had two horses
One dark and one roan
The dark one carried clothes
And the roan carried money

They also had tools
And very good batteries
To unscrew the rails
And switch the tracks

Martín says to José
Don't be afraid
We're going to rob the train
That's coming from Bermejillo

I'm not afraid
Yellow is my color
I've robbed big trains
And steam engines

My goodness
They already caught José
On the corner of the market
They tied him up and left

It must have been his prayers
That his mother prayed for him
It must have been his good luck
That it wasn't José's turn
