The Fight With The Devil

Octavio Mesa

La Pelea Con El Diablo

Como yo he sido andariego y a mí ninguno me aterra
Cuando saco mi machete se pone a temblar la tierra
Ayer peleé con el diablo que dicen disque es muy bravo
Le pegué una machetera que yo me quedé asombrado

Me tiré el carriel pa' atrás y el poncho me lo cachee
Y del primer machetazo la cola se la boté
Continuamos la pelea y antes que la gente viera
Con la punta del machete le pinté una calavera

Y el que no quiera creer ni me quiera parar bolas
Que se acerque para acá, que yo le muestro la cola
Y el que no quiera creer ni me quiera parar bolas
Que se acerque para acá, que yo le muestro la cola

Cuando el diablo se vio herido se puso en forma de araña
Se me vino como un tiro y casi casi me agarra
Entonces pasé el machete a la otra mano izquierda
Y de un fuerte machetazo le boté la primer pierna

Y como cinco revuelos y le grité ave María
Y antes que se diera cuenta lo volví una porquería
3500 cortadas le contaron al finado
Y un letrero que decía todavía no he terminado

Y el que no quiera creer ni me quiera parar bolas
Que se acerque para acá, que yo le muestro la cola
Y el que no quiera creer ni me quiera parar bolas
Que se acerque para acá, que yo le muestro la cola

Y el que no quiera creer ni me quiera parar bolas
Que se acerque para acá, que yo le muestro la cola
Y el que no quiera creer ni me quiera parar bolas
Que se acerque para acá, que yo le muestro la cola

The Fight With The Devil

I've been a wanderer, and nothing scares me
When I pull out my machete, the ground starts to shake
Yesterday I fought the devil, they say he's pretty tough
I swung my machete, and I was left in shock

I threw my bag behind me and adjusted my poncho
With the first swing of the machete, I took off his tail
We kept on fighting, and before the crowd could see
With the tip of my machete, I drew a skull

And if you don't want to believe or pay me any mind
Come over here, and I'll show you his tail
And if you don't want to believe or pay me any mind
Come over here, and I'll show you his tail

When the devil saw he was hurt, he turned into a spider
He came at me like a bullet and almost got me
So I switched the machete to my left hand
And with a strong swing, I took off his first leg

And like five spins, I shouted 'Hail Mary'
And before he knew it, I turned him into a mess
3,500 cuts were counted on the dead guy
And a sign that said 'I'm not done yet'

And if you don't want to believe or pay me any mind
Come over here, and I'll show you his tail
And if you don't want to believe or pay me any mind
Come over here, and I'll show you his tail

And if you don't want to believe or pay me any mind
Come over here, and I'll show you his tail
And if you don't want to believe or pay me any mind
Come over here, and I'll show you his tail
