Poor man left his ranch
headed abroad
man of great talent began
to earn money in different ways
and all over the world
He had people there in Tijuana
also in Guadalajara and a lot of
greenbacks arrived as far as Nayarit
and in the City of Santiago
was where he spent them
Bernardo told his father
always keep me saddled
the pigeon during the day
at night to my red
in case something were offered to me
the sky has become cloudy
The federals arrived like
Bernard had a presentiment
he jumped at the pigeon and the pigeon
jumped over the river there among the bushes
a plane he had hidden
and flew them over the mountains
to the United States
My Mexico doesn't love me
and neither do the horses
I have many hiding places
although it didn't last long in them
but it turns into gold
all the things I touch
Today I am in California
tomorrow I am going to fly
in the City of Chicago
I have things to fix
they will miss me my friends
but they are going to wait for me because
they know that I will return to Santiago
soon
