Lyrics and translation Lucha Villa - Corrido de Cananea




Corrido de Cananea
Corrido de Cananea
Voy a dar
I will tell
Un pormenor
A story
De lo que a me ha pasado
Of what happened to me
Que me han agarrado preso
They caught me like a mouse
Siendo un gallo tan jugado
They thought I was a broken down bronco
Que me han agarrado preso
They caught me like a mouse
Siendo un gallo tan jugado
They thought I was a broken down bronco
Me fui para el agua prieta
I went to Agua Prieta
A ver si me
To see if they
Conocían
Knew me
A las once de la noche
At eleven o'clock at night
Me aprehendió la policía
The police caught me
A las once de la noche
At eleven o'clock at night
Me aprehendió la policía
The police caught me
Me agarraron los sherifes
The sheriffs caught me
Al estilo
In the
Americano
American style
Como era hombre de delito
As I was a man of crime
Todos con pistola en mano
They all had their guns drawn
Como era hombre de delito
As I was a man of crime
Todos con pistola en mano
They all had their guns drawn
Me llevan
They take me
Pa Cananea
To Cananea
Atravesando la Sierra
Across the mountains
No me les pude pelar
I could not escape them
Por no conocer la tierra
Because I did not know the land
No me les pude pelar
I could not escape them
Por no conocer la tierra
Because I did not know the land
La cárcel de Cananea
The Cananea jail
Ta situada
Is located
En una mesa
On a mesa
Donde yo fui procesado
Where I was processed
Por causa de mi torpeza
Because of my stupidity
Donde yo fui procesado
Where I was processed
Por causa de mi torpeza
Because of my stupidity
Despedida
Goodbye
No les doy
I don't give
Porque no la traigo aquí
Because I don't have it here
Se la dejé al Santo Niño
I left it to the Holy Child
Y al Señor de Mapimí
And to the Lord of Mapimí
Se la dejé al Santo Niño
I left it to the Holy Child
Y al Señor de Mapimí
And to the Lord of Mapimí
