Domingo Corrales

Sunday Corrales riding his horse looked over his landDomingo Corrales montando a caballo miraba sus propiedades
He was a rancher with a lot of cash, one of those solid menEra hombre ranchero de mucho dinero de aquellos hombres cabales
He had five stables, plenty of cattle, and lots of irrigated fieldsTenía cinco establos, bastante ganado y muchas tierras de riego
That’s why he rode out early, getting lost in his territoryPor eso temprano montaba a caballo perdiendose en sus terrenos

But the women were his downfallPero las mujeres, fueron su desgracia
Who would’ve thought that in an adventure Sunday Corrales would lose his lifeQuien iba pensarlo que en una aventura Domingo Corrales la vida perdiera

Sunday Corrales was drunk, the parties were going strongDomingo Corrales andaba borracho, las fiestas se celebraban
Riding his horse in front of the plaza, people gathered aroundRayando el caballo frente de la plaza, la gente se amontonaba
The town queen named Gardenia had caught his eyeLa reina del pueblo llamada Gardenia al verla le había cuadrado
And he knew how to steal her away with a gun in hand on his horse's backY supo robarla con pistola en mano en ancas de su caballo

But in a ravinePero en un barranco
As he was racingCuando iba corriendo
They both fell rolling and rolling, they died together with the horseSe fueron cayendo rodando y rodando, los dos se mataron con todo y caballo
