El Teniente Lucas
Valentín Elizalde
Lieutenant Lucas
I'm going to sing some verses
To remember a brave man
Juan Huerta Trejo
They called him Lieutenant
He always pulled his weight
He always faced things head-on
His career began
In service of the government
Commander Toledo
Was always his subordinate
He fought with the twenty-three
Little angels of hell
After a short time, he joined
Pedrito's ranks
His companion was
The famous Romerito
But one day they killed him
His fate was sealed
The godfather and Uncle Sam
Dictated his sentence
They said in this world
His presence was no longer needed
But whenever they found him
They were always ashamed
Here goes my Commander Manuel Barreras
On the twenty-second of June
The man was flying
He knew his family
Would be waiting for him
But that engine failed
And then they were mourning him
He was flying from Obregon
With his soul friends
Lieutenant said to the Creator
I await my death calmly
But save my boss
My friend El Güero Palma
He always traveled by air
As he couldn't by land
Because they wanted to receive him
The Lieutenant already knew
In a golden case
He arrived in Jalisco that day
Lieutenant Lucas has died
Those who wished for his death
Were left with hiccups
He always sheltered himself
With a little blue zarape.
