El Cerezo
Matamoros huele a sangre
la muerte se agasagaba
en el cerezo mentado
el diablo se presentaba.
Oliverio pedía arreglo
pero garcia no acepto
el cerezo es muy pequeño
y no cabemos tu y yo.
Fijate bien periquito
la gualadada en las compuertas
todos los que van pa adentro
los registran y los cuentan
como es posible que adentro
alla tantas metralletas
De dieciocho que murieron
cuatro fueron colombianos
ademas una pareja
que viniera a visitarlos.
Matamoros Tamaulipas
y Broxville al otro lado
siempre han sufrido el asecho
de gente del contrabando.
Fijate bien periquito
la gualadada en las compuertas
todos los que van pa adentro
los registran y los cuentan
como es posible que adentro
alla tantas metralletas.
The Cherry Tree
Matamoros smells of blood
Death was lurking
In the mentioned cherry tree
The devil was showing up.
Oliverio asked for a deal
But Garcia didn't accept
The cherry tree is very small
And we don't fit, you and I.
Look closely, little parrot
The stash in the gates
Everyone who goes inside
They search and count them
How is it possible that inside
There are so many machine guns.
Of the eighteen who died
Four were Colombians
Also a couple
Who came to visit them.
Matamoros Tamaulipas
And Broxville on the other side
Have always suffered the siege
From people of smuggling.
Look closely, little parrot
The stash in the gates
Everyone who goes inside
They search and count them
How is it possible that inside
There are so many machine guns.
