Los Cinco Burros Cargados
Dueto Los Armadillos de Rigo Flores
The Five Loaded Donkeys
With five donkeys loaded
I crossed the federal checkpoint
I loaded them with hay
And I started limping
I was transporting pure gum
And I started yelling at them
To pretend, I have style
And I don't change my expression
Good morning, my good friend
That's how I spoke to the commander
He said, go ahead, old man
Watch out for any crook
Just as I passed the commander
And a bag fell
Since it was seven kilos
The load shifted
What does the commander shout at me
Hey friend, what's up
The hay is heavy
And it wanted to tilt
That's why I picked up a stone
And put it in my bag here
I placed it on the other side
The load is back to normal
Go on and unload your donkeys
Go take care of them
Also take care of the hay
Mother Earth provides it
I said to myself, it's pure gum
What the earth gives me
Thank you very much, commander
I'll be on my way
This is the last trip
I'm not coming back
God will decide next year
If I'll grow it again
