La Carcel de Cananea

I'm going to give a detailed account
Of what has happened to me
That I've been taken prisoner
Being such a daring guy

I was apprehended by the gendarmes
In American style
Like a criminal
All with guns in hand

The Cananea jail
Is located on a mesa
And there I was processed
Because of my clumsiness

I don't say goodbye
Because I don't bring it here
I left it to the holy child
And to the lord of Mapimi
