Platicando Con Mi Cuerno

Talking With My Horn

Platicando Con Mi Cuerno

I went for a walk in the mountainsFui a caminar a la sierra
To clear my mindPa' despejarme la mente
I took a bag of cocaineLleve un bolson de perico
And some shots of aguardienteY unos tragos de aguardiente
Only my rifleSolo mi cuerno de chivo
Accompanies me as alwaysMe acompaña como siempre

From the top of the hillDesde la cima del cerro
All my town was watchingTodo mi pueblo miraba
And maybe it was because of the cocaineY seria por el perico
But I was talking to my riflePero a mi cuerno le hablaba
Reviewing in my mindRepasando por mi mente
What I dedicated myself toA lo que me dedicaba

I asked my rifleLe preguntaba a mi cuerno
How many bullets have you firedCuantas balas has tronado
Tell me my rifleDime mi cuerno de chivo
How many lives have you takenCuantas vidas has quitado
My rifle didn't answerMi cuerno no contestaba
It was very quietAhí estaba muy callado

TalkingHablado
And the greeting is, for Gerardo BeltránY el saludo es, para gerardo beltrán
Up all the people from the mountain friendsArriba toda la gente de la sierra compas

I made with my own lifeHice con mi propia vida
The life of a gunmanLa vida de un pistolero
With you they made a weaponContigo hicieron un arma
With a piece of steelCon un pedazo de acero
Maybe I chose my fateTal vez yo escoji mi suerte
But they decided for youPero por ti decidieron

I have defended my life butHe defendido mi vida pero
You have helped meTú me has ayudado
And if one day they lock me upY si algún día me encerraran
Maybe you will be freeTal vez quedarás librado
But you will keep killingPero seguiras matando
Because you were born markedPues ya naciste marcado

And if one day you fail meY si algún día me fallaras
And I die in the shootoutY muero en la balacera
Under these oaksDebajo de estos encinos
Please bury me hereAquí por favor me entierran
And bury you with meY que te entierren conmigo
So that no one else diesPara que ya nadien muera
