Carrera de La Barranca
Hay carreras clandestinas
Carreras, carreras de la barranca
Entre barañas y espinas
Allá llevé a mi potranca
Prieta, como a mí me gusta
Para sobarles el anca
Mirando a un potro y al dueño
Le dije: Hagamos un trato
Le juego mi Bailarina
Contra su potro El Retrato
Cuántos caballos perdidos
Y aquí la historia relato
Tal parecía que el potro
Había escuchado la apuesta
Relinchaba y relinchaba
Era su pecho una fiesta
En honor de mi potranca
Que también estaba puesta
Además de la carrera
También corrió el nuevo peso
Esta vida es muy cortita
Hay que gozarla, y por eso
Hubo mariachis y banda
Mi corredor era El Hueso
El potro, en el partidero
Se mostraba muy inquieto
La Bailarina, tranquila
Como consciente del reto
Relinchando, le decía
Vas a perder por coqueto
Se oyó un disparo de súper
Súper carrera jugaron
Lo cierto es que aquel Retrato
Hasta mi rancho llevaron
El potro y La Bailarina
Enamorados quedaron
Race of the Barranca
There are underground races
Races, races of the barranca
Through thorns and brambles
I took my filly there
Dark, just how I like it
To rub their flanks
Looking at a colt and his owner
I said: Let’s make a deal
I’ll bet my Dancer
Against his colt The Portrait
So many lost horses
And here’s the story I tell
It seemed like the colt
Had heard the wager
He neighed and neighed
His chest was a party
In honor of my filly
Who was also ready
Besides the race
The new weight also ran
This life is pretty short
Gotta enjoy it, and that’s why
There were mariachis and a band
My runner was The Bone
The colt, at the starting line
Was acting really restless
The Dancer, calm
Like she knew the challenge
Neighing, she said to him
You’re gonna lose for being cocky
A shot rang out from a rifle
They played a super race
The truth is that The Portrait
Was taken all the way to my ranch
The colt and The Dancer
Fell in love with each other
