Veinte Mujeres
Lupillo Rivera
Twenty Women
I ask that when I die
Don't cry for me, please
Let the golden ones from the north
Sing me this song.
Friends and family
Sing it to me with love
And continue with corridos
Until we reach the cemetery.
Twenty beautiful women
Will arrive at the cemetery
All dressed in black
Will surround my coffin.
Some cry out of sadness
Others out of sincere pain
And others, if I'm not mistaken
Are crying for the money.
When they bury me
Don't have pity on me
And let Don Pedro Rivera
Sing me a song.
I am Lupillo Rivera
Always known as 'el toron'
And for badass corridos
I was always the toughest.
Some cry out of sadness
Others out of sincere pain
And others, if I'm not mistaken
Are crying for the money.
