Nomas Las Mujeres Quedan
Los Cadetes de Linares
Only the Women Remain
In a canyon in the mountains
There's a ranch lost to time
They declared war on each other
Men who once lived just fine
Only the women remain
They died from gunfire
On the north side, the Perez
On the south side, the Garcia
Because of the women
That both sides desired
Little by little they were wiped out
Those two dynasties expired
The women were so lovely
They entered into marriage
But now they wear black
And it's a sad heritage
Because through those backroads
The devil was unleashed
The cornfield doesn't bloom anymore
The land is left behind
Even the weeds don't grow
And all the livestock has died
And the river, it seems
Is drying up, unkind
Only the women remain
And the hate is killing them
On their faces, they carry
The marks left by their tears
They remember their husbands
Crying in the graveyard
The women were so lovely
They entered into marriage
But now they wear black
And it's a sad heritage
Because through those backroads
The devil was unleashed
