Carrera a Muerte

On the starting line two horses
At the finish line two guns
In the town, there was no fair
There were no balls left
It was a death race
It was a race alone

Juan Pedro says to Jacinto
Let's have a drink
Because if Pinto fails you
Tonight, I'll finish you
And I know well that not even the wind
Can beat my Colorado

Then Jacinto said
While Juan Pedro was drinking
May God take you to his kingdom
Forgive your audacity
I'm going to win the race
And that woman will be mine

And with the full moon
They toasted to Maria
She was the beautiful woman
That both men wanted
With the full moon
They both counted at the same time
And where they toasted
They left the dust

Past the halfway point
The horses were struggling
As if they already sensed
That death was near
And upon reaching the finish line
They tied the race

And with the full moon
They drew their guns
In the town, there was no fair
There were no balls left
With the full moon
Five gunshots rang out
Three ended Pedro
Two killed Jacinto

Two friends
Two horses
Two guns
And a love
The friends have already died
The guns were lost
The horses, only God knows

Two friends
Two horses
Two guns
And a love
The friends have already died
The guns were lost
Maria is in bloom
