Lyrics

Estoy en el rincón de una cantina
oyendo una canción que yo pedí,
me estan sirviendo ahorita mi tequila
ya va mi pensamiento rumbo a ti.
Yo sé que tu recuerdo es
mi desgracia, y vengo aqui nomás a recordar,
que amarga son las cosas que nos pasan
con hay una mujer que paga mal.
Quien no sabe en esta vida la traición
tan conocida que nos deja
un mal amor.
Quien no llega a la cantina
exigiendo su tequila y exigiendo
su canción, me están sirviendo ya la
del estribo ahorita ya no se si tengo fé.
Ahorita solamente
yo les pido que toquen
otra vez la que se fue.
Quien no sabe en esta vida la traición
tan conocida que nos deja
un mal amor.
Quien no llega a la cantina
exigiendo su tequila y exigiendo
su canción, me están sirviendo ya la
del estribo ahorita ya no se si tengo fé.
Ahorita solamente
yo les pido que toquen
otra vez la que se fue.

Lyrics translation

I'm in the corner of a canteen.
hearing a song I asked for,
they're serving me my tequila right now.
my thoughts are on you.
I know your memory is
my misfortune, and I just come here to remember,
how bitter are the things that happen to us
with there is a woman who pays badly.
Who does not know in this life betrayal
so well-known that it leaves us
a bad love.
Who doesn't make it to the canteen
demanding their tequila and demanding
your song, I'm already serving the
from the stirrup now I don't know if I have faith.
Now only
I ask you to play
the one who left again.
Who does not know in this life betrayal
so well-known that it leaves us
a bad love.
Who doesn't make it to the canteen
demanding their tequila and demanding
your song, I'm already serving the
from the stirrup now I don't know if I have faith.
Now only
I ask you to play
the one who left again.
