Lyrics
Cuando salimos de fianza
Con la fuerte novillada
Ay que trabajos pasamos
Por esa grande llanada
Quinientos novillos fueron
Todititos muy livianos
No los pudieron parar
Entre quince americanos
A las once de la noche
Se solto un fuerte aguacero
Para poderlos parar
Les formamos tiroteo
En los llanos del palomo
Se nos solto un toro bravo
El caporal lo lazo
En su caballo melano
La mamá de un vaquero
Le pregunta al caporal
Que razón me da de mi hijo
Que no lo he visto llegar
Señora si le dijera
Se pondria usted a llorar
A su hijo lo ha matado un toro
En las zanjas de un corral
Quinientos novillos fueron
Todititos muy livianos
No los pudieron parar
Entre quince americanos
Ya con esta me despido
Ya no tengo que cantar
Estos versos los compuso
Giribaldo el caporal
Lyrics translation
When we bail
With the strong novillada
Ay what jobs we spent
By that great plain
Five hundred steers were
Very light toditos
They couldn't stop them.
Among fifteen Americans
At eleven o'clock in the evening
There was a heavy downpour
So we can stop them
We formed them shooting
In Los llanos del palomo
We got a good bull.
Corporal tie him up.
On his horse melano
A cowboy's mom
He asks the corporal
What reason do you give me for my son?
I didn't see him coming.
Ma'am, if I told you
Would you cry
Your son has been killed by a bull
In the trenches of a corral
Five hundred steers were
Very light toditos
They couldn't stop them.
Among fifteen Americans
I'll say goodbye to this one.
I don't have to sing anymore
These verses he composed
Giribaldo the corporal
