El Penal De La Loma
Duelo
The Hill Penitentiary
25 years of prison
not everyone can endure them
I had to endure them because of
my damn poverty
but today I thank heaven
my sentence is over
in the hill penitentiary
for love they prosecuted me
for loving with all my soul
the daughter of a rich landowner
for being a simple commoner
he took her away from my side.
given life in prison
by a corrupt official
one day they notified me
a lawyer is looking for you
pick up your belongings
your sentence has ended.
The lawyer told me
my mother is waiting for you
I am the son of both
of that sacred love
the rich man who separated her from you
has already died
I'm leaving, I say goodbye
goodbye hill penitentiary
I have a wife and child now
what more can I ask of life
goodbye hill penitentiary
from Laredo Tamaulipas
