Corrido de Los Mendoza
Hacienda de tierra blanca
Llegaste a ser muy famosa
Recuerdo atravez del tiempo
Cuando vivian los mendoza
Jose francisco era el nombre
De aquel rico apotentado y
Juan robaba un caballo
De la punta de un ganado
Cuando los pesco la ley
Con el cuerpo del delito
Cargo con 5 rurales a tiro
Limpio el solito
Me quedan dos en la carga y
Tres en la carrillera
Alcanse a llevarme cuatro
Antes de que me muriera
Con un balaso en el pecho
Era imposible escapar
Juan salvate si puedes
La sangre me quiere ahogar
Imposible abandonarte
O aquí quedamos los dos
No se puede vivir tanto
Contra las leyes de Dios
La muerte me está llevando
Quisiera hacer testamento
Lo que les robe a los ricos
No llega ni al 10 porciento
Mataron a los mendoza
La hacienda a quedado sola
No vieron donde quedaron
Nadie supo con la bola
Ballad of the Mendozas
White land estate
You became very famous
Memory through time
When the Mendozas lived
Jose Francisco was the name
Of that rich landowner
And Juan stole a horse
From the tip of a herd
When the law caught them
With the crime scene
He took down 5 rurales
All by himself
I have two left in the chamber
Three in the belt
I managed to take four
Before I died
With a bullet in the chest
It was impossible to escape
Juan save yourself if you can
The blood wants to drown me
Impossible to leave you
Or here we both stay
One cannot live so much
Against God's laws
Death is taking me
I would like to make a will
What I stole from the rich
Doesn't even reach 10 percent
They killed the Mendozas
The estate was left alone
They didn't see where they went
No one knew with the ball
