Lyrics
Acabo con los Buendias
Ahora donde ira a parar
Parece que ya al Cesár
Le quedan poquitos días
Rafael tiene la razón
Cuando habla de estacionado
Porque ahorita este folclor
Lo tienen civilizado-
Quisiera preguntarte Rafael
Cual es el festival que has elegido Tu
Para el pueblo Vallenatp
Si tu comportamiento contrata con él
Porque el folclor es del pueblo
Bastante lamentable
Que en ese festival
No se oiga mensionar
El nombre de Luis Pitre
Si con Francisco el hombre
Vinieron a formar
Sentir del acordeón
La historia así lo dice
Del Rey Alejo Duran
El pueblo quedo encantado
Con Colacho lastimado
Pero se puede aceptar
De Calixto no hay que hablar
Su talento es conocido
Si se vuelve a presentar
El Pueblo elige lo mismo
Pero inconforme el pueblo ha de seguir
Si le estropean sus aires vallenatos
Y exige que sean honrados
Si desde el ruedo al Pollo
Lo vieron salir, en las garras del jurado
Luis Enrique Martinez
El Pollo vallenato que siempre lo ha sido
Volvera a ese ruedo
La tierra e Pedro Castro
Orgullo vallenato
Y justo a lastimado
Al pueblo consejero
Y no tendran palabras
Pa exigirles
Su nuevo rey es un barranquillero (bis)
Lyrics translation
I'll kill the Buendias.
Now where will it stop
It seems that already at Cesar
He's got a few days left.
Rafael is right.
When you talk about parked
Because now this folklore
They have it civilized-
I'd like to ask you, Rafael.
What is the festival you have chosen
For the Vallenatp village
If your behavior contracts with him
Because folklore belongs to the people
Quite unfortunate
That at that festival
Do not be heard
The name of Luis Pitre
If with Francis the man
They came to form
Accordion feel
History says so
Del Rey Alejo Duran
The village was delighted
With injured Colacho
But it can be accepted
Don't talk about Calixto.
His talent is known
If you re-submit
The people choose the same thing
But not conforming the people must continue
If you spoil your vallenatos
And demands that they be honest
If from the ring to the chicken
They saw him come out, in the clutches of the jury
Luis Enrique Martinez
The vallenato chicken that has always been
You're going back to that ring.
The land and Pedro Castro
Vallenato pride
And just hurt
To the council people
And they will have no words
Pa require them
His new king is a barranquillero (bis)
