Lucio Peña

Peña arrived smilingLlegaba peña sonriente
Where there was a fandangoA donde habia un fandango
He said I'm not very braveDecia no soy muy valiente
Nor do I go around showing offNi me la ando recargando
I know I have my debtsSe que tengo mis pendientes
But I'm not here to collect themPero no vengo a buscarlos

Here in my townAqui en mi pueblo
And its ranchesY sus ranchos
Where I usually strollDonde acostumbro pasearme
I'm friends with the tough guysSoy amigo de los machos
Allow me to introduce myselfPermitanme presentarme
I'm Lucio Peña, boysSoy lucio peña muchachos
And I haven't backed downY no e sabido rajarme

I like bull ridingMe gusta las coleaderas
Horse racesLas carreras de caballos
I like wearing chapsMe gusta usar chaparreras
And letting loose in my danceY darle rienda a mi ballo
If you need a rancherSi neceita una ranchera
By God, I won't failPor dios santo que no fallo

I have a reputation as a banditTengo fama de bandido
But I've never stolenPero jamas e robado
They say I'm a killerDicen que soy asesino
Because I've killed severalPorque a varios e matado
I've gambled my fateE rifado mi destino
Thanks to God, I've wonGracias a dios e ganado

So the years have passedAsi han pasado los años
And time keeps nothingY el tiempo no guarda nada
I miss those fieldsAquellos campos extraño
Today I see my life changedHoy veo mi vida cambiada
They no longer blame me for harmYa no me achacan mas daños
Because I belong to the lawPorque soy de la acordada

I only keep from my danceSolo guardo de mi ballo
A silver saddleUna montura plateada
I've always carried with meConmigo siempre e llevado
A .38 revolverUna 38 escuadra
I wish to ride a horseDeseeo montar a caballo
Like I used to stroll aroundComo antes yo me paseaba
