Yo no soy americano
Pero comprendo el ingles
Me lo aprendi con mi hermano
Al derecho y al reves
A cualquier americano
Lo ago temblar a mis pies
Cuando apenas era un niño
Huerfano a mi me dejaron
Sin que me hiciera un cariño
A mi hermano lo colgaron
A su esposa carmelita
Cobardes la asesinaron
Yo me vine de hermosillo
En busca de oro y riqueza
Al indio noble y sencillo
Lo defendi con fiereza
El gobierno americano
Puso precio a mi cabeza
Y me he metido en cantinas
Castigando americanos
Tú seras el capitán
El que mataste a mi hermano
Lo agarrastes indefenso
Orgulloso americano
No soy chileno, ni extraño
En este suelo que piso
De mexico en california
Por que dios asi lo quiso
En mi zarape bordado
Traigo mi fe de bautismo
Yo me pasie en california
Por el año del 50
En mi montura plateada
Y mi pistola bereta
Yo soy ese mexicano
De nombre Joaquin Murrieta
