Lyrics

Juan condenado a caminar
con cara de tonto
por Ixtepec va a pasar
pues allЎ cerca de la costa
un muero (c)l va a visitar.
Juan 6 meses tarda en llegar
con el paso que (c)ste lleva
otros 6 en regresar.
Juan ve que Marta te embrujі
la morena coste±ita
queria un amante espa±ol.
Siento las pisadas ya por mis calles
que no es por Marta, es por mi que (c)l viaja, es mi reloj.
Ven, al menos detente ya le dice la gente.
Cuando muchos a±os van
Ixtepec sabe que (c)l
nunca ni muerto podrЎ parar.
Siento las pisadas ya otro a±o pasі Juan
que no es el muerto, es as­:
la vida es en ciclo.

Lyrics translation

John condemned to walk
with silly face
by Ixtepec will happen
well allY near the coast
a mill (c) l is going to visit.
Juan takes 6 months to arrive
with the step that (C) ste takes
six more to return.
Juan sees Marta bewitch you
the brunette cost±ita
I wanted a Spanish lover.
I feel the footsteps already through my streets
it's not for Marta, it's for me that (c)l travels, it's my watch.
Come on, at least stop and people tell you.
When many years go
Ixtepec knows that (c)l
never even dead could stop.
I feel the footsteps and another pasi Juan
that's not the dead, it's ace:
life is in cycle.
