Pancho López

He was born in Chihuahua in 1906
On a mat, under a cypress tree
At two years old, he already spoke English
He killed two men at the age of three
Pancho, Pancho López
Small, but a killer

At four years old, he knew how to ride
He knew how to handle a rifle
At 30 yards, I saw him put out
An eye of a louse without aiming
Pancho, Pancho López
Brave as a lion

At five years old, he knew how to sing
Play guitar and even dance
And his dad let him smoke
He got drunk on pure mezcal
Pancho, Pancho López
Ended up in jail

At six years old, he fell in love
Then at seven, he got married
What had to happen happened
At eight years old, dad turned out
Pancho, Pancho López
He went to the revolution

Here the story ended
Because at nine, Pancho died
And the advice from the story is
Don't live life so fast

Pancho, Pancho López
You lived like a cyclone
Pancho, Pancho López
You lived like a cyclone
