Paroles et traduction Los Cadetes De Linares - Generoso y Carmelita

Generoso y Carmelita

Voy a empezar con este corrido
Corriendo el año 57
En un pueblito de "llega y vete"
Ha sucedido
Llegó a ese pueblo un desconocido
Muy bien plantado, y con camioneta
Mas iba armado de metralleta
Y precavido

Pidió la novia, el muy atrevido
Le respondieron en corto plazo
Y el "no", para él, fue como un balazo
Recibido

Cómo hay muchachos en todo México
Que, sin dudarlo, cuando son pollos
Al matrimonio le son alérgicos
Y ya de viejos, quieren pimpollos

Ya por la noche andaba tomado
Y amenazó con matar a varios
Mas le madrugaron los contrarios
Con soldados
Hoy está preso en Ciudad Victoria
Porque le achacaron varias muertes
Tendría la culpa la mala suerte
De su historia

Levanta el vuelo, blanca palomita
Y allá en el cielo escribe el corrido
De Generoso y de Carmelita
Para que encuentren la paz y olvido

Generous and Carmelita

I'm going to start this song with a story
That took place in the year '57
In a small town where people come and go
This happened
A stranger arrived in that town
Handsome and well-dressed, with a pickup truck
But he was armed with a machine gun
And ready for anything

He asked for the girl's hand in marriage, the fool
They gave him a curt reply
And the "no" he received was like a bullet
Straight to the heart

There are many young men in Mexico
Who, without hesitation, when they are boys
Are allergic to marriage
And when they are old, they want young women

By nightfall, he was drunk
And threatened to kill several people
But his opponents beat him to it
With soldiers
Today he is imprisoned in Ciudad Victoria
For several deaths that were blamed on him
His bad luck
Caused his downfall

Fly away, white dove
And write this song in the sky
About Generoso and Carmelita
So they may find peace and forgetfulness
