Se Mamo El Becerro

The Calf Got Drunk

Se Mamo El Becerro

He rode on his cuacuIba montado en su cuacu
His dog accompanied him,Lo acampañaba su perro,
He raised the bottleSe empinaba la botella
He remembered that in his confinementRecordaba que en su encierro

He was informed that at his houseLe informaron que en su casa
There was almost a burial almost dailyCasi a diario habia un entierro
He just kept thinking and thinkingNomas pensaba y pensaba
He couldn't explain the matterNo se explicaba el asunto

He took another drinkOtro trago se aventaba
Returned to the same pointRegresaba al mismo punto
How come there were so many burialsComo es que habia tanto entierro
If there wasn't even one deceasedSi no habia ni un difunto

Urging on his horseApurando asu caballo
With iron spursCon las espuelas de hierro
He was arriving at the corralIba llegando al corral
That was at the foot of the hillQue estaba bajando el cerro

He couldn't milk the cowNo pudo ordeñar la vaca
Because the calf got drunkPorque se mamo el becerro

Almost arriving at his ranchCasi llegando asu rancho
Macario took a swigMacario tomo una tajo
He opened the back doorAbrio la puerta de atras
He turned green as hellSe puso verde el carajo

His buddy was upstairsSu compadre estaba arriba
His wife was downstairsSu mujer estaba abajo
With a knife in handCon el cuchillo en la mano
He felt his blood boilingSentia que le hervia la sangre

He cut off both of the guy's earsLe corto los dos al bato
Took away the dog's hungerAl perro le quito el hambre
And told his wifeY le dijo asu mujer
It's all yours and your buddyEs todo tu yo el compadre

Cursing his wifeMaldiciendo asu mujer
Macario went to the hillMacario se fue pal cerro
Cursing his buddyMentandocela al compadre
The one who cuckolded himA quel que le puso el cuerno

He knew that of friendsSupo que de los amigos
The best one is always the dog...El mejor siempre es el perro.....
