El Buey De La Barranca

In the agave plant, Federico was dozing
And the oxen and cows went to the ravine
In the afternoon, the biggest ox was missing
And his buddy offered to go look for him

We will take that ox out of the ravine
We will take that ox out of the ravine
We will take that ox out of the ravine
From the ravine we will take out that ox

The people from the ejido offered to help them
And in no time many men gathered
Sticks and ropes, and a few good horses
And all together they went to the ravine

We will take that ox out of the ravine
We will take that ox out of the ravine
We will take that ox out of the ravine
From the ravine we will take out that ox

The state government officials, concerned
Decided to help in the rescue
And with chains, pulleys, and winches
All singing, riding on their tractor

We will take that ox out of the ravine
We will take that ox out of the ravine
We will take that ox out of the ravine
From the ravine we will take out that ox

Men and equipment were ready on the hill
And Federico, already quite drunk, shouted at them
That the ox was in the stable, safe and sound
And they all started singing together

We will put that dude in the ravine
We will put that dude in the ravine
We will put that dude in the ravine
In the ravine we will put that dude

We will put that dude in the ravine
We will put that dude in the ravine
We will put that dude in the ravine
In the ravine we will put that dude

We will put that dude in the ravine
We will put that dude in the ravine
We will put that dude in the ravine
In the ravine we will put that dude
