Los Dos Amigos
La Adictiva
The Two Friends
These were two friends
Who came from Mapimí
Because they didn’t want to come empty-handed
They stole some guanasevi
They had two horses
One dark and one light
The dark one carried gear
And the light one had the cash
They also had machinery
And some good batteries
To unbolt the tracks
And switch the lines
Martín says to José
Don’t get scared now
Let’s rob the train
That’s coming from Bermejillo
I’m not scared at all
Yellow’s my favorite color
I’ve robbed big trains
And steam engines too
Holy little saint
They caught José
In the corner of the market
They tied him up and he slipped away
Maybe it was the prayers
That his mother said
Maybe it was his good luck
That José got away.
