Amargura En La Sangre
Los Huracanes del Norte
Bitterness in the Blood
They saw him come down from the mountains
Just as the Sun was peeking out
He was asking for a commander
Who raped his wife and sister
And also tore down some plants
That I used to buy for him every year
He traded the bull for a pistol
And a bag full of bullets
Saddled up the chestnut with white legs
He mounted and took off on his way
He walked four nights and days
Without eating, without sleeping, the guy
The little guy saw him this morning
And ran to come tell me
There went Valdemar from the plains
He's looking for a commander
He has a face like he means business
Says he’s gonna mess him up
He searched almost the whole state
Someone said they saw him in Huatabampo
Since the chestnut couldn’t go anymore
A buddy lent him his car
He took him out of his house that day
Took him to check on the crops
That’s how the story of the man ended
That cruel one who raped his family
They found him in some wheat fields
With his face looking up at the sky
More than 30 bullets from a rifle
With what rage they took his life
They’ve seen him watching his ranch
Leaning against a barbed wire fence
Though he got revenge for the disgrace
Those things aren’t easily forgotten
And if they’ve seen the guy smiling
The bitterness runs in his blood
