La Fama Del Muchacho
José Manuel Figueroa
The Fame of the Kid
They say his mother didn’t want
To have a son who rode
Yet he promised himself
I’ll be the best rider around
And seeing the kid didn’t understand
His mother finally gave her blessing
He left the town full of joy
With two spurs and a big heart
He rode in many rodeos
Endless bulls he’d ride
Through fairs, parties, and rodeos
The kid’s fame spread wide
The kid’s fame spread wide
Today I’m gonna sing about Indio Juárez
About Soto from Acatlipa and Ratón
To my buddy Servando and La Rana
Not forgetting that great Salomón
La Chejera and El Niño Maravilla
El Tilingo, El Liebro, and the rest
Who in the name of courage and the party
Well, they’re now resting in peace
He rode in many rodeos
Endless bulls he’d ride
Through fairs, parties, and rodeos
The kid’s fame spread wide
The kid’s fame spread wide
He rode in many rodeos
Endless bulls he’d ride
Through fairs, parties, and rodeos
The kid’s fame spread wide
The kid’s fame spread wide
