La Banda Del Carro Rojo
Dicen que venian del sur
En un carro colorado
Traian cien kilos de coca
Iban con rumbo a chicago
Asi lo dijo el soplon
Que los habia denunciado.
Ya habian pasado la aduana
La que esta por el paso
Pero en las cruces los rinchers
Lo estaban esperando
Eran los rangers de texas
Que comandan el condado.
Una sirena lloraba
Y el sargento les gritaba
Que detuvieran el carro
Para que lo registraran
Y que no se resistieran
Porque si no los mataban.
Surgio una m-16
Cuando iba rompiendo el aire
El faro de una patrulla
Se vio volar por los aires
Asi empezo aquel combate
Donde fue la gran masacre.
Decia lino quintana
Esto tenia que pasar
Mis compañeros han muerto
Ya no podran declarar
Y yo lo siento sheriffes
Porque yo no se cantar.
De los siete que murieron
Solo las cruces quedaron
Cuatro eran del carro rojo
Los otros tres del gobierno
Por ellos no se preocupen
Iran con lino al infierno.
Dicen que eran del cantil
Otros que eran del altar
Hasta por ahi dicen muchos
Que procedian de parral
La verdad nunca se supo
Nadie los fue a reclamar.
The Red Car Gang
They say they came from the south
In a red car
They brought a hundred kilos of coke
They were heading to Chicago
That's what the snitch said
Who had reported them.
They had already passed customs
The one by the border
But at the crosses, the rangers
Were waiting for them
They were the Texas rangers
Who command the county.
A siren was crying
And the sergeant was shouting at them
To stop the car
So they could search it
And not to resist
Because if they didn't, they would kill them.
An M-16 emerged
As it broke through the air
The headlight of a patrol car
Was seen flying through the air
That's how that battle began
Where the great massacre took place.
Lino Quintana said
This had to happen
My comrades have died
They won't be able to testify
And I'm sorry, sheriffs
Because I can't sing.
Of the seven who died
Only the crosses remained
Four were from the red car
The other three from the government
Don't worry about them
They'll go to hell with Lino.
They say they were from Cantil
Others say they were from Altar
Many even say
That they came from Parral
The truth was never known
No one came to claim them.
