The Gambler

Hey, Martin
What happened?
We gave each other a hand of poker
Well, if that's what you're looking for, let's go in

Martin Estrada Contreras
A professional gambler
People respected him
Because he played legally
It was right for everyone
I knew how to lose or win

But a beautiful young woman
It touched his heart
He makes her his wife
Before the altar of the Lord
It's a rose for him
From your garden, beautiful flower

A guy came to town
That Martin came to look for
But Martin lost everything
I didn't have to bet anymore
If you want to look at my letters
You have to pay to see
Martin answers calmly
I'll bet my wife on you
He had a sure hand
I knew I wasn't going to lose

4 aces were revealed
Martin felt like he was dying
Such are the laws of the game
You have to learn to suffer
I had a poker of kings
There was nothing to discuss

Martin came out like lightning
And in two hours he returned
His wife was at his side
Everything fell silent

For me the gambling debts
They are always debts of honor
I give you what I love most
But I give her to you dead
Even though it breaks my soul
Of feeling and pain

Two flashes were heard
From 2 expanding bullets
First he killed his beloved
Then he took his own life
