En su automóvil resplandeciente
In your glowing car
De Villanueva para el molino
From Villanueva to the mill
Va el general y regresa siempre
The general goes and always comes back
Con esa viuda muy resentido
With that very resentful widow
Y allá en Codas a mí me dijeron
And there in Codas they told me
Los que conocen al general
Those who know the general
Que en las batallas no tuvo miedo
That in battles he was not afraid
Y en el molino lo ven llorar
And in the mill they see him crying
Viene pitando, viene pitando
Comes beeping, comes beeping
Viene pitando por el ramal
It comes beeping through the branch
Y ese el carro del general
And that's the general's chariot.
Hombre dispuesto y enamorado
Willing and in love man
Mi general si no lo mataron
My General If He Wasn't Killed
Cuando peleó en la guerra civil

Tenga cuidado, tenga cuidado
Be careful, be careful
Que en molino puede morir
That in mill can die
Mi general si no lo mataron
My General If He Wasn't Killed
Cuando peleó contra Uribe-Uribe

Tenga cuidado, tenga cuidado
Be careful, be careful
Las molineras son más terribles
Millers are more terrible
Viene pitando, viene pitando
Comes beeping, comes beeping
Viene pitando por el ramal
It comes beeping through the branch
Y ese el carro del general
And that's the general's chariot.
Hombre dispuesto y enamorado
Willing and in love man
Pueden decirlo muchas personas

Cuando se crucen el ramal
When they cross the branch
No solamente murió Escalona

Y aquí enterraron al general
And here they buried the general
Óigame bien general Dangond
Óigame bien general Dangond
Cuando lo entierren en el ramal
When he is buried in the branch
Mira la historia que un general
Look at the history that a general
Murió en batalla por una amor

Viene pitando, viene pitando
Comes beeping, comes beeping
Viene pitando por el ramal
It comes beeping through the branch
Y ese el carro del general
And that's the general's chariot.
Hombre dispuesto y enamorado
Willing and in love man
