De Regreso Al Penal
Pala Ancha
Back to the Penitentiary
He opened the cell
His sight ahead
He saw his freedom
What he longed for
What he dreamed the most
Was to be in his home
He left the guitar
Inside his cell
He didn't want to play
He just wanted to get to his house
He couldn't stand it anymore
He got on a bus
That stopped at the corner
Near the penitentiary
And spinning the ticket the driver
Told him to come in
And he sat down
And it seemed to him
That he was flying
And when he arrived
What he never thought
He didn't imagine
That he would find
His friend and his love
In his bed
And this is a shovel! A wide shovel!
He killed his wife
His soulmate friend
And started to cry
And walking
All bloodied
He returned to the penitentiary
The cell opened
And he entered with his head down
He didn't want to talk
About what happened
About what occurred
With the others in the penitentiary
He lit a joint
Took his guitar
And started to sing
I loved her with all my life
Now she's not here
And he sat down
And it seemed to him
That he was flying
And when he arrived
What he never thought
He didn't imagine
And he killed them
He didn't ask them
Why they deceived him
And he surrendered
He was very alone
He had nothing left
And he sat down
And it seemed to him
That he was flying
And when he arrived
What he never thought
He didn't imagine
That being in prison
Cooled the passion
Of the one he loved
And he sat down
And it seemed to him
That he was flying
And when he arrived
What he never thought
He didn't imagine
And he killed them
He didn't ask them
Why they deceived him
And he surrendered
He was very alone
He had nothing left
