Lyrics

En un pueblito olvidado
Hay una tumba escondida
Que nadien ha visitado
Aunque paresca mentira
De un general retirado
Voy a contarles su vida
Trinidad era su nombre
Y reyes su apelativo
Sabia manejar las armas
Al ritmo de su gatillo
Muchos perdieron la vida
De eso parral fue testigo
Con ordenes de arrestarlo
Mandaron a luis garcia
Solo con flores me llevas
Y falta ver todabia
Quien de los dos necesita
Las cuatro velas prendidas
Se miraron un momento
Todo en silencio quedo
Y el general al sargento
Por el cuello lo agarro
Todo paso tan violento
Que uno de los dos callo
Solo un balazo se ollo
La bala silvo en el viento
Reyes quizo disparar
Pero fallo en el intento
Muerto callo el general
Fue mas veloz el sargento

Lyrics translation

In a little forgotten village
There's a hidden grave
That nadien has visited
Although it sounds like a lie
From a retired general
I'm going to tell you his life
Trinidad was his name
And Kings his name
Knew how to handle weapons
To the beat of your trigger
Many lost their lives
That's what parral witnessed.
With orders to arrest him
They sent luis garcia.
Only with flowers you take me
And we still have to see
Which one of us needs
The four candles lit
They looked at each other for a moment
All quietly remain
And the general to the sergeant
By the neck I grab it
Every step so violent
That one of the two callos
Only one shot went ollo
The bullet hiss in the wind
Kings wanted to shoot
But failed to try
Dead callo the general
The sergeant was faster.
