Manuel Juarez Lyrics in English Joan Sebastian
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Manuel Juarez by Joan Sebastian from Spanish to English.
En un ranchito en la sierra
In a little ranch in the mountains
feliz vivía Manuel Juarez
Manuel Juarez lived happily
arrendando sus caballos
leasing his horses
cuidando sus propiedades

trabajando bien su tierra

poco sale a las ciudades
he rarely goes to the cities
Bonita estaba su chata
His truck was nice
estaban recien casados
they were newlyweds
vivían en casa de adobe
they lived in an adobe house
pero bien enamorados
but very much in love
la feria del cuarto viernes

se celebraba en el pueblo

cerca de semana santa
close to Holy Week
pero andaba suelto el diablo
but the devil was loose
y arriba Sinaloa amigoo
and up in Sinaloa, my friend
Manuel ensillá una yegua
Manuel saddled a mare
tambien su potro mas fino
also his finest colt
con su sonrisa y su chata
with his smile and his wife
con rumbo al pueblo se vino
they headed to the town
caramba que mala pata
damn, what bad luck
que jugada del destino
what a twist of fate
Un tipo grita en la calle
A guy shouts in the street
haaay que rechulas caderas
daaamn, what beautiful hips
no se referia a la yegua
he wasn't referring to the mare
y esas si son tiznaderas
those are the sooty ones
Manuel le dió vuelta al potro
Manuel turned the colt around
y el otro sacó pistola
and the other pulled out a gun
Juaréz herido de un brazo
Juarez wounded in the arm
el otro muerto echo bola
the other dead, curled up
en las patas del caballo
at the horse's feet
que Manuel Juaréz adora
that Manuel Juarez adores
testigos hubo del caso
there were witnesses to the case
y aunque a Manuel apresaron
and although they arrested Manuel
luego de averiguaciones
after investigations
en libertad lo dejaron
they let him go free
mientras que calladamente
while quietly
al ocicon sepultaron
they buried the loudmouth
Y en un ranchito en la sierra
And in a little ranch in the mountains
alla vive Manuel Juaréz
there lives Manuel Juarez
con sus hijos y su chata
with his children and his wife
tiene pocas amistades
he has few friends
trabaja cuacos y tierra
he works with horses and land
ya no sale a las ciudades

Yo con esta me despido señores
With this, I bid you farewell, gentlemen
y les recuerdo una cosa
and I remind you of one thing
que aunque sea humilde el ranchero

hay que respetar su esposa
