Corrido de Lucio Vazquez (Los Pavos Reales)
Antonio Aguilar
Ballad of Lucio Vazquez (The Royal Turkeys)
They killed Lucio Vázquez
The royal turkeys flew towards the wet mountains
They killed Lucio Vázquez for a young woman he loved
It was 10 o'clock at night, Lucio was having dinner
Some friends arrived to invite him to a party
His mother told him, his father with more reason
Son, don't go to the dance, my heart warns me
Lucio, they are going to kill you
They rode their horses towards the wet mountains
When they arrived at the dance, his rival was waiting for him
They invited him for some drinks, Lucio didn't want to accept
They exchanged some words and decided to fight
They gave him three stabs from the back to the heart
As his mother said, he was killed in betrayal
Poor Lucio
My Lady of Guadalupe from the town of Jerez
Give me permission, ma'am
To rise again
After they killed him, they threw dirt in his mouth
It's not the same to see someone die, as when it's your turn
The royal turkeys flew towards the wet mountains
They killed Lucio Vázquez, for a young woman he loved
