El Último Cartucho

En un ranchito apartado
Allá en lo alto de la sierra
Vive un hombre muy aislado
Como si fuera una fiera

Siempre bajaba al poblado
Sin que la ley lo supiera

Montando caballo zarco
Casi siempre se veía
Tal vez buscaba un cariño
Que tanta falta le hacía

Era la flor más hermosa
Mi hacienda Santa María

Su sueño más anhelado
Por fin se le realizo
Y ancas de su caballo
A esa joven se llevo

Quiso formar su familia
Y no se le concedió

El tenía cuentas pendientes
Con soldados y rurales
El gobierno lo buscaba
Desde que vivían sus padres

El por su parte deseaba
Olvidarse de sus males

Aquella noche de Octubre
Los soldados lo rodeaban
Tal vez pensaba rendirse
Y le mataron su amada

Hace estragos con su rifle
A todo el que divisaba

Esto les va ha salir caro
Y nunca van a aprenderme
Yo no les doy ese gusto
Jamás podrán fucilarme

Con el último cartucho
Yo sólo voy a matarme

The Last Cartridge

In a remote ranch
High up in the mountains
Lives a man recluse
As if he was a beast

He would always go down to the town
Without the knowledge of the law

Riding a pale horse
You could usually see him
Perhaps he sought affection
Which he lacked so much

She was the most beautiful flower
My ranch, Santa Maria

His most wished-for dream
Was finally fulfilled
And on the back of his horse
He took that young woman with him

He wanted to raise a family
But it was not granted to him

He had outstanding debts
With soldiers and rural areas
The government was looking for him
Since his parents were alive

On his part, he wanted
To forget about his misfortunes

That October night
Soldiers surrounded him
Perhaps he thought of surrendering
And they killed his beloved

He wreaked havoc with his rifle
On everyone he could see

This is going to cost them dearly
And they'll never catch me
I'll not give them that pleasure
They'll never gun me down

With my last cartridge
I'll just kill myself
