The Hen

I'm going to sing a corrido
To the whole audience
About a brave man we have
In the state of Guerrero
I've seen his bravery
Even against the government

It was ten o'clock at night
He left Juchitán
I'm going to Azoyú, Guerrero
To see my family
And also the commander
Who wants to disarm me

Arriving in Azoyú, Guerrero
He went to the cantina
He started shooting bullets
No longer valuing his life
Perhaps the commander knows
That the hen has arrived

His friends told him
Stop shooting
The commander is coming
I know he's looking for you
Tell him to come get me
Or he'll be up all night

Get ready, twenty-two
Because they're coming for you
The commander is coming
He wants to meet you
He wants to test my courage
To know about my gun

The commander spoke to him
Trying to cut the evils
To surrender the gun
Thinking he was a coward
Enemesio López replied
I don't even surrender to my father

They drew their guns
Without hesitating
Enemesio embraced him
With great resolution
He let him go to die
God bless you

At the first shots
The police ran
They asked Camacho
Where's the twenty-two
The commander is dead
The hen killed him

They took him to prison
Enemesio was content
They took him to San Luis
Detained for a while
Camacho is pensive
And the commander is dead

With this I bid you farewell
It's getting late
I sang you this corrido
About a man who is not a coward
The little hen has killed
A big rooster
