El Moro de Cumpas

Hey there!
And, ha, ha, ha, ha

On March 17th
In the town of Agua Prieta
People came from everywhere

They came for the races
The Lightning and the Moro
Two top-notch horses

The Moro of Pedro Frindres
Was from the town of Cumpas
So beautiful and so fast

The Lightning was a bay
A prized horse
To his owner
Rafael Romero

When they paraded the Moro
He looked so fine
That bets started flying

Everyone said
That horse was coming
Especially to win

Checks, bills, and pesos
Overflowed for the guy from Cumpas
On Sunday morning

By the afternoon, the bets
Surpassed a hundred thousand pesos
In that Copacabana

And it was done, Chuy

Frank and Jesús Valenzuela
Put down fifteen thousand pesos
On Romero's bay

Puyo Morales said
I think with the Moro
They'll take all the cash

Trini Ramírez was around
Also Chendo Valenzuela
Showing off the horses

Two top racers
Two seekers of victory
Both
Were good contenders

Finally, they gave the signal
And the Moro shot ahead
With the aim to win

Ramírez hit the bay
And halfway through the race
Left the Moro behind

Leonardo Yáñez, El Nano
Composer of the corrido
Apologizes to everyone
Here all doubts are settled
The bay from Agua Prieta won
And the Moro from Cumpas lost.
