Corriente y Canelo
Se fue siguiendo la huella
Del amo que no volvia
Tenía más de tres días
Que no quería comer
Era corriente y canelo
El perro que yo refiero
Lo llamaron fandanguero
Cuando lo vieron crecer
Que perro, pero que noble animal
Que perro nunca se me ah de olvidar
Salió una noche de octubre
De alla del San Juan del rio
No sintio el hambre ni el frío
A su amo quería encontrar
Llego a Queretaro lejos
Miro en San Luis las estrellas
Y un amanecer sus huellas
En matehuala dejo
Que perro, pero que noble animal
Que perro nunca se ah de olvidar
Cuando paso por Saltillo
Topo con muchos coyotes
Mato y corrio por los montes
Para su viaje seguir
En Monterrey y sabinas
Sintio que pronto lo hallaba
Cansado ya se doblaba
Pero no quizo dormir
Luego cruzo la frontera
Ventiando del otro lado
Al amo que había buscado
Hasta que al fin lo encontro
Se echo en una sepultura
Donde estaba un letrero
Aquí se encuentra un brasero
Y el noble perro murio
Corriente and Canelo
He left following the trail
Of the master who didn't return
It had been more than three days
That he didn't want to eat
He was common and cinnamon
The dog that I refer to
They called him fandanguero
When they saw him grow
What a dog, but what a noble animal
That dog I will never forget
One October night
From San Juan del Rio
He didn't feel hunger or cold
He wanted to find his master
He arrived far in Queretaro
He looked at the stars in San Luis
And at dawn his tracks
He left in Matehuala
What a dog, but what a noble animal
That dog I will never forget
When he passed through Saltillo
He encountered many coyotes
He killed and ran through the mountains
To continue his journey
In Monterrey and Sabinas
He felt he was soon finding him
Tired, he was already bending
But he didn't want to sleep
Then he crossed the border
Sniffing on the other side
The master he had been looking for
Until he finally found him
He lay in a grave
Where there was a sign
Here lies a brazier
And the noble dog died
