La Tigra Del Caserio

If you think you're my dad
Just because I married you
You're more than confused
And stop scolding me
Every time you feel like it
Because you haven't given birth
To a daughter to give
Abuse and beatings regularly

On the other hand, I demand
That you stop making
Faces and twisted lips at me
Because I don't owe you anything
You owe me
For all the time I've lived
As a servant without pay
To earn your last name

Don't treat me badly
I've already warned you
Because if I charged you
For the years I've served
The farm, the car, the house
Livestock, boat, and shack
Plus the money you have
Would all be in my name

As for the liquor, it doesn't matter
If you want to drown in a river
But don't come back
To my house at dawn
Because I'll send you back
The same way you came
A bird that sleeps outside
Has eaten in the street
What’s good for the turkey
Is good for the hen
It's clear and understood
Like it or not
Behave yourself, partner
Don't provoke a challenge
Because it might bring out
The devil for being bold

If you think you bought me
Or that I'm your slave
Don't even believe it in your sleep
And that verbal abuse
That you give me for no reason
Has me hurting inside
You better straighten up
Because I have you measured

Despite your selfishness
As a wife, I've fulfilled
If I've changed, it's your fault
You deserve it well
And don't be jealous of me
Or leaning on other men
If you don't trust me
I don't trust you either

Another one graduates
As a tough girl in my town
Cry all you want to know
That this woman has spirit
Be careful if you cut it
The edge of my sharpness
From here on out, they call me
The tigress of the neighborhood
