The Old Bull

Julión Álvarez y Su Norteño Banda

El Toro Viejo

Por ay viene el caporal cayéndose de borracho
Por ay viene el caporal cayéndose de borracho
Gritandole a los vaqueros échenme ese toro gacho
Gritandole a los vaqueros échenme ese toro gacho

Aipa toro que allá va
Lázalo!! ya lo alazé
Amárrale hombre!! ya lo amarré
Piálalo!! ya lo pialé
Túmbalo!! ya lo tumbé

Echale el pretal!! ya se lo eché
Asiérralo hombre!! ya lo aserré
Móntale hombre!! ya le monté
Capoteal hombre!! lo capoteé

Echalo pa' fuera!! yo ya lo eché
Llama a cabresto!! eso no sé
Ay si no sabes te enseñaré
Eee eee eee

Muchachos allá va el toro, no se lo dejen llegar
Porque ese toro es muy bravo, no los vaya a revolcar
Muchachos allá va el toro, no se lo dejen llegar
Ay les mandaré el capote pa' que lo puedan torear...

La vaca era colorada y el becerrito era moro
La vaca era colorada y el becerrito era moro
Me puse a considerar que su padre sería un toro
Me puse a considerar que su padre sería un toro

Aipa toro que allá va
Lázalo!! ya lo alazé
Amárrale hombre!! ya lo amarré
Piálalo!! ya lo pialé
Túmbalo!! ya lo tumbé

Echale el pretal!! ya se lo eché
Asiérralo hombre!! ya lo aserré
Móntale hombre!! ya le monté
Capoteal hombre!! lo capoteé

Echalo pa' fuera!! yo ya lo eché
Llama a cabresto!! eso no sé
Ay si no sabes te enseñaré

Toma, toma, toma torito toma
Torito de la barranca
Si quieres comer salitre
Torito brinca las trancas

Apa toro que allá viene
Apa toro que allá va
Mi pensamiento va y viene
Mi pecho con gusto se haya
Yo habito en un jacalito
Por fuera de la muralla...

The Old Bull

There comes the foreman falling drunk
There comes the foreman falling drunk
Yelling at the cowboys 'throw me that tough bull'
Yelling at the cowboys 'throw me that tough bull'

Aipa bull, there he goes
Lasso him!! I already lassoed him
Tie him up man!! I already tied him
Rope him!! I already roped him
Knock him down!! I already knocked him down

Put the saddle on him!! I already did
Hold him man!! I already held him
Mount him man!! I already mounted him
Cape him man!! I already caped him

Throw him out!! I already threw him out
Call for the lead rope!! I don't know
Oh if you don't know, I'll teach you
Eee eee eee

Boys, there goes the bull, don't let him get to you
Because that bull is very fierce, don't let him overturn you
Boys, there goes the bull, don't let him get to you
I'll send you the cape so you can bullfight him...

The cow was red and the calf was dark
The cow was red and the calf was dark
I started to consider that his father would be a bull
I started to consider that his father would be a bull

Aipa bull, there he goes
Lasso him!! I already lassoed him
Tie him up man!! I already tied him
Rope him!! I already roped him
Knock him down!! I already knocked him down

Put the saddle on him!! I already did
Hold him man!! I already held him
Mount him man!! I already mounted him
Cape him man!! I already caped him

Throw him out!! I already threw him out
Call for the lead rope!! I don't know
Oh if you don't know, I'll teach you

Take, take, take little bull take
Bull from the ravine
If you want to eat saltpeter
Little bull jump the bars

Come on bull, here he comes
Come on bull, there he goes
My thoughts come and go
My chest is happily found
I live in a little hut
Outside the wall...
