Paroles et traduction Eliseo Robles y Los Bárbaros del Norte - Juan Ramos

Juan Ramos

Jefe de nuevo laredo
Que pronto se te olvido
Que andabamos de pateros
Hace tiempo usted y yo
Ganandonos el dinero
Traicionando a la nacion
No porque trai uniforme
Y trai la ley en sus manos
Se olvida que yo fui el hombre
Que una vez le dio la mano
Cuando en la lancha en que andava
Se volco y se andaba ahogando
No me recuerdes pasados
Ya tengo mucho dinero
Ni me importa el contrabando
Ahora tengo muy buen puesto
Te iva llevar prisionero
Pero te prefiero muerto
Sabe que estoy desarmado
De eso no tenga pendiente
Con morirme abia soñado
En las manos de un valiente
Y que ganara otro grado
Que luciera ante su gente
Hecho mano a su pistola
Marandolo a sangre fria
Cayo bien muerto juan ramos
Y en su rostro se veia
Como que se estaba riendo
De lo que el nunca creia
Luego que ya lo mato
Se quedo muy pensativo
Y se apunto al corazon
Tambien pegandose un tiro
Para que quiero la vida
Si eh matado un gran amigo

Juan Ramos

Boss of Nuevo Laredo
How quickly have you forgotten
That we were once smugglers
Long ago, you and I
Were earning our money
By betraying our nation
Just because you wear a uniform
And have the law in your hands
Doesn't mean you can forget that I
Was once the man who shook your hand
Back when you were drowning
In the boat you were sailing
Don't remind me of the past
I have plenty of money now
And I don't care about smuggling
I have a very good position now
I was going to take you prisoner
But I'd rather have you dead
You know that I'm unarmed
Don't worry about that
I've always dreamed of dying
At the hands of a brave man
So you can earn another rank
To show off to your people
He reached for his gun
Killing him in cold blood
Juan Ramos fell dead
And on his face it looked like
He was laughing
At the one thing he never believed
After he killed him
He stood there, lost in thought
And shot himself in the heart
Also taking his own life
What do I want with life
If I've killed a great friend
