Llego Borracho El Borracho
Llego borracho el borracho pidiendo cinco tequilas
Uno pa mojar labio, otro pa abrir boca
Otro pa entrar en calor y el cuarto para agarrar valor
Pos iba a pedir fiado
Y le dijo el cantinero
Se acabaron las bebidas
Si quieres hecharte un trago
Vámonos a otra cantina
(Llego borracho el borracho)
Se va borracho el borracho del brazo del cantinero
Mira mira pa decir la mera verdad
Uno no traia dinero y el otro no disparaba ni en defensa propia
Y le dijo: Que te tomas
A ver quien se cae primero
Aquel que doble las corbas
Le va a costar su dinero
Y borracho y cantinero
Seguian pidiendo y pidiendo
Mariachis y cancioneros
Los estaban divirtiendo
Pero se sentía en el ambiente
Muy cerquita del infierno
Grito de pronto el borracho: La vida no vale nada
Y le dijo el cantinero
Mi vida esta asegurada
Si vienes hechando habladas
Yo te contesto con balas
Los dos sacaron pistola
Se cruzaron los balazos
La gente corrio hecha bola
Seguian sonando plomazos
De pronto los dos cayeron
Haciendo cruz con sus brazos
Y borracho y cantinero
Los dos se estaban muriendo
Mariachis y cancionero
También salieron corriendo
Y así acabaron dos vidas
Por un mal entendimiento
The Drunkard The Drunkard Arrives
The drunkard arrives drunk asking for five tequilas
One to wet the lips, another to open the mouth
Another to warm up and the fourth to gather courage
He was going to ask for credit
And the bartender told him
The drinks are over
If you want to have a drink
Let's go to another bar
(The drunkard arrives drunk)
The drunkard leaves drunk with the bartender's arm
Look, look to tell the truth
One didn't have money and the other didn't even shoot in self-defense
And he said: What are you having
Let's see who falls first
Whoever doubles the shots
Will have to pay up
And drunkard and bartender
Kept asking and asking
Mariachis and singers
Were entertaining them
But it felt in the air
Very close to hell
Suddenly the drunkard shouted: Life is worth nothing
And the bartender told him
My life is insured
If you come talking nonsense
I'll answer with bullets
Both pulled out their guns
They exchanged shots
People ran in a panic
Gunshots kept sounding
Suddenly both fell
Making a cross with their arms
And drunkard and bartender
Both were dying
Mariachis and singers
Also ran away
And so ended two lives
Because of a misunderstanding
