Translation

Venia bajando del cerro

He was coming down from the hill

En su cuaco cimarron

On his wild horse

Huyendo de aquel teniente

Running away from that lieutenant

Al frente del peloton

Leading the platoon

Lo que no sabian los guachos

What the guys didn't know

Es que el viejo era cabron

Is that the old man was a tough one


Paulino sembraba mota

Paulino was planting weed

En el barranco del cerro

In the ravine of the hill

Pero no se imaginaba

But he didn't imagine

Que alguin le pusiera el dedo

That someone would rat him out

Por eso los federales

That's why the federals

Lo traian al puro pelo

Had him by the hair


Les preparo la enboscada

He set up the ambush

A la orilla del camino

On the side of the road

Se puso dos pericazos

He had two grenades

Tambien un trago de vino

Also a sip of wine

Van a saber estos vatos

These guys are going to find out

Quien es el viejo paulino

Who old Paulino is


Se oye el trote de caballos

The trot of horses is heard

Por el cañon del olivo

Through the canyon of the olive tree

Paulino se la jugaba

Paulino took risks

Y siempre salia vivo

And always came out alive

Nomas jalo el llamadon

He just pulled the trigger

De su fiel cuerno de chivo

Of his faithful AK-47


Nomas me falta el soplon

All I need is the snitch

Para acabar de vengarme

To finish my revenge

Segun mi punto de vista

According to my point of view

Se me hace que es mi compadre

I think it's my buddy

Voy a buscarlo a su rancho

I'm going to look for him at his ranch

Para partirle su madre

To kick his ass


Habra muchas despedidas

There will be many farewells

Pero como esta ninguna

But like this one, none

Una dos tres cuatro cinco

One two three four five

Cinco cuatro tres dos una

Five four three two one

Siempre fue cabron paulino

Paulino was always a tough one

Desde que estuvo en la cuna.

Since he was in the cradle
