Lo Que El Sheriff Se Contó
Les Luthiers
What Sheriff Howard Told
Sheriff Howard Benson, defeated the evil Rick
With the strength of his fists, he delivered justice
Sheriff Howard Benson, defeated the evil Rick
He robbed a bank every day, was a danger, a threat
And if there were no banks in town, he robbed banks in the square
A hefty reward was offered for his head
And the Sheriff set out to hunt the outlaw
I found him, we faced off, he fought like a tiger
I caught him with these hands, just me
Alone and without help, I defeated the evil Rick
I dragged him with a firm hand and put him in jail
Rick was so bloodthirsty, so fierce, so bad
That in jail the inmates called him the criminal
The bandit's girlfriend fell in love with the Sheriff
She forgot the outlaw and stayed with the Sheriff
That's how we found out what she had told him
That the bandit was weak and a bit effeminate
That she had never known what a good lover was
And that the bandit compared to the Sheriff was just a beginner
Without help, he attacked, hit him, and put him to sleep
The brave Sheriff tied him up and delivered him to justice
Sheriff Howard Benson defeated the evil Rick
He wasn't so evil, just a bit of a fighter
Without help, he attacked, hit him, and put him to sleep
The brave Sheriff tied him up and delivered him to justice
The truth is that there were people who helped me a little
The fight was fair, I was lucky that time
Because he was alone and I
And we were thirty-three
With a little help, he attacked, hit him, and put him to sleep
The brave Sheriff tied him up and delivered him to justice
The true story is not the same as the one I told
I waited for him to fall asleep and then tied him up
I hit him, I hit him, I gave him a beating
I hit him very hard, but after I tied him up
And received a huge reward for that feat
With his help, he attacked when the bandit ordered him
The cowardly Sheriff obeyed, tied him up, hit him, and delivered
He delivered, delivered
He delivered the money he received
