Que hay a orillas del río Cesar

Yo soy el que sé enlazar, hombe a los novillos

Hombe, a los novillos cimarrones
Hombe, to the bighorn steers
Que salen de la montaña
Coming out of the mountain
A dormir a los playones
To sleep at the beachgoers
Y se van de madrugada
And they leave at dawn
Por que el tigre se los come

Me llaman

Me llaman el vallenato

Me llaman el vallenato

En Codazzi tengo renombre

Yo soy Urbanito Castro, hombe caporal

Yo dejé, yo dejé una playonera

Pero me traje su huella, ay hombe, pintada

Lo mismo que la del toro
