Nomas Las Mujeres Quedan
En un cañon de la sierra
Hay un rancho en el olvido
Se declararon la guerra
Hombres que vivian tranquilos
Nomás las mujeres quedan
Ellos murieron a tiros
Del lado norte los Perez
Del lado sur los Garcia
Por culpa de las mujeres
Que unos y otros pretendian
Poco a poco se acabaron
Aquellas dos dinastias
Las mujeres muy hermosas
Llegaban al matrimonio
Pero ahora andan enlutadas
Y es el triste testimonio
Que por esos andurreales
Anduvo suelto el demonio
Ya ni la milpa florece
El campo esta abandonado
Ni la hierba mala crece
Y ha muerto todo el ganado
Y el rio segun parece
Tambien ya se esta secando
Nomas las mujeres quedan
Y el odio las va matando
En el rostro siempre llevan
La huella que deja el llanto
De sus maridos se acuerdan
Llorando en el camposanto
Las mujeres muy hermosas
Llegaban al matrimonio
Pero ahora andan enlutadas
Y es el triste testimonio
Que por esos andurreales
Anduvo suelto el demonio
Only the Women Remain
In a canyon in the mountains
There's a ranch lost to time
They declared war on each other
Men who once lived just fine
Only the women remain
They died from gunfire
On the north side, the Perez
On the south side, the Garcia
Because of the women
That both sides desired
Little by little they were wiped out
Those two dynasties expired
The women were so lovely
They entered into marriage
But now they wear black
And it's a sad heritage
Because through those backroads
The devil was unleashed
The cornfield doesn't bloom anymore
The land is left behind
Even the weeds don't grow
And all the livestock has died
And the river, it seems
Is drying up, unkind
Only the women remain
And the hate is killing them
On their faces, they carry
The marks left by their tears
They remember their husbands
Crying in the graveyard
The women were so lovely
They entered into marriage
But now they wear black
And it's a sad heritage
Because through those backroads
The devil was unleashed
