Lupe Ruvalcaba

The dawn is coming, you can see the dawn breaking
I want to make a corrido to the great Lupe Rubalcaba
What the law had been waiting for a long time was granted to him

On October 18 in the early morning
The police came down on him without giving him any time
They took him to prison like a caged beast

So much wandering around the world through different paths
From warrior to Monterrey and there in the United States
From Chicago to New York in constant danger

You had to arrive alone like a deer at the watering hole
To his beloved Cerralvo he arrived from a long journey
If there's no way to escape, you have to endure the courage

Your friends who esteem and appreciate you will miss you
Your loves will cry while you serve your sentence
But there are worse things, only death is absence

Goodbye beloved little town of Cerralvo, Nuevo León
I dream of walking your streets because now I'm in prison
I miss my family and everything I love
