Corridos Clásicos

Uah, ay, ay, ay, ah

En 1911, les voy a explicar muy bien
Mataron a dos hermanos y a un primo hermano también
Un jueves 20 de abril, como a las 3:00 de la tarde
Murió don Mariano Pérez en las manos de un cobarde
Carreras tan desgraciadas, esas carreras del cerro
Perdieron vida y caballos, y perdieron su dinero

Ahí le va, compa
¿Quihubo, quihubo?

Jefe de Nuevo Laredo, qué pronto se le olvidó
Que andábamos de pateros hace tiempo, usted y yo
Ganándonos el dinero, tracionando a la nación
Hoy porque trae uniforme, y trae la ley en sus manos
Se olvida que yo fui el hombre que alguna vez le dio la mano
Cuando la lancha en que andaba se volteó y se andaba ahogando

No me recuerdes pasados
Ya tengo mucho dinero
Ni me importa el contrabando
Ahora tengo muy buen puesto
Te iba a llevar prisionero
Pero te prefiero muerto

Voy a cantar un corrido al estilo de mi tierra
Murió Candido Rodríguez, a aquel lado de la sierra
Un lunes por la mañana, le dijo así a sus criaturas
"Ya me voy pa Copalquin a arreglar unas facturas"

Cuando Rodríguez llegó, Adrián andaba tomando
Y la banda de Soyupan, la que le andaba tocando
Por el filo de la sierra, los pinos se oyen llorar
De ver a Rodríguez muerto, que lo llevan a enterrar

¡Y puro Laberinto, oiga!

A orillas del Río Bravo, en una hacienda escondida
Laurita mató a su novio porque él ya no la quería
Y con otra iba a casarse, nomás porque las podía

Hallaron dos cuerpos muertos al fondo de una parcela
Uno era el de Emilio Guerra, el prometido de Estela
El otro el de Laura Garza, la maestra de la escuela

La última vez que se vieron, ella lo mandó a llamar
"Cariño del alma mía
Tú no te puedes casar
¿No decías que me amabas?
Que era cuestión de esperar"

Classic Corridos

Woah, ay, ay, ay, ah

In 1911, I'm going to explain it to you very well, my dear
They killed two brothers and a cousin as well
One Thursday, April 20th, around 3:00 in the afternoon
Don Mariano Pérez died at the hands of a coward, it's true
Such unfortunate races, those races on the hill
They lost their lives and horses, and they lost their money, my sweet thrill

There you go, buddy
What's up, what's up?

Chief of Nuevo Laredo, how quickly you've forgotten, it seems
That we were smugglers long ago, you and me, chasing dreams
Earning our money, betraying the nation, you see
Now because you wear a uniform, and you hold the law in your hands
You forget that I was the man who once lent you a hand, my dear lass
When the boat you were in capsized and you were about to drown, alas

Don't remind me of the past
I have a lot of money now
I don't care about smuggling now
Now I have a very good position, you see
I was going to take you prisoner, my sweet
But I prefer you dead, I must confess, my treat

I'm going to sing a corrido in the style of my land
Candido Rodríguez died, on the other side of the mountain grand
One Monday morning, he said to his children, so sweet
"I'm going to Copalquin to settle some bills, my love, complete"

When Rodríguez arrived, Adrián was drinking, it's said
And the Soyupan band, the one that was playing for him, instead
Along the edge of the mountain, the pines are heard to weep
Seeing Rodríguez dead, as they carry him to his sleep

And pure Laberinto, listen!

On the banks of the Rio Grande, on a hidden hacienda, my dear
Laura killed her boyfriend because he didn't love her, I fear
And he was going to marry another, just because he could, it's clear

They found two dead bodies at the bottom of a field, it's true
One was Emilio Guerra's, Estela's fiancé, too
The other was Laura Garza's, the school teacher, through and through

The last time they saw each other, she sent for him, you see
"My dearest love, so true
You can't get married, not you
Didn't you say you loved me?
That it was just a matter of waiting, patiently?"
