Lyrics
El viento lo balanceaba
Hay que recuerdo tan negro
Era el cuerpo de mi padre
Que tenia una soga al cuello
Lo habian colgado el domingo
De las ramas de aquel cedro
Apenas tenia 10 años
Lanzé mi llanto de niño
El perro tenia un balazo
Lo supe por sus aullidos
Pero arrastraba una espuela
Que era de los asesinos
Señor pues le pertenece
O tal vez se le olvido
Yo soy Jesús Maldonado
Hijo de aquel que colgo
Ya supondra los motivos
Por los que lo busco yo Despues de todo las leyes
No van a poder salvarlo
Sus hijos no tienen culpa
Pero eso no viene al caso
Si usted no llega a las doce
Tal vez no vuelva a mirarlos
En el paso del coyote
Vaya muy bien preparado
Si usted no quiere pelear
Lo arrastrare en mi caballo
De las ramas de aquel cedro
Lo voy a dejar colgado
La muerte andaba a caballo
Los hechos los presencio
En el paso del coyote
Este caso sucedio
Ahi Jesús Maldonado
A un juez de letras colgó
Lyrics translation
The wind swayed him
There I remember so black
It was my father's body.
That he had a rope around his neck
He was hanged on Sunday.
From the branches of that Cedar
I was barely 10 years old.
I started crying as a child.
The dog had a bullet.
I knew it from his howls
But he was dragging a spur
Who was one of the killers
Sir, it belongs to you.
Or maybe you forgot
I am Jesus Maldonado
Son of the one I hang
You will already State the reasons
The ones I look for after all the laws
They won't be able to save him.
Your children are not to blame
But that's not the case
If you don't arrive at Twelve O'clock
Maybe I won't look at them again.
At the coyote pass
Go very well prepared
If you don't want to fight
I'll drag him on my horse
From the branches of that Cedar
I'm gonna leave it hanging.
Death rode on horseback
The facts I presume
At the coyote pass
This case happened
There Jesus Maldonado
A judge of letters hung
