Linda Ronstadt – Ballad Of Cananea lyrics
I'm going to detail
What happened to me,
That they have taken me prisoner
Being a well played rooster.
(Even though I've been around and
Should have known better.)
I went to Agua Prieta
To see if I had a reputation there
And at 11: 00 at night
The police apprehended me.
They arrested me
In the American style,
As though I were a criminal
All of them with pistol in hand.
The jail of Cananea
Is situated on a plateau
And in it I was processed
On account of my stupidity.
I give you no farewell
For I don't have it with me
Leave it to the Holy Child
And to the Lord of Mapimi
What happened to me,
That they have taken me prisoner
Being a well played rooster.
(Even though I've been around and
Should have known better.)
I went to Agua Prieta
To see if I had a reputation there
And at 11: 00 at night
The police apprehended me.
They arrested me
In the American style,
As though I were a criminal
All of them with pistol in hand.
The jail of Cananea
Is situated on a plateau
And in it I was processed
On account of my stupidity.
I give you no farewell
For I don't have it with me
Leave it to the Holy Child
And to the Lord of Mapimi
