en un carreton viejito
donde venia fortino
traia un cajon de madera
con el cuerpo de su niño
venia dispuesto a matar
quien detengo su camino
en una casa muy rica
de la hacienda la rosita
fortino toco la puerta
le respondieron ahorita
para aparecer despues
una mujer muy bonita
la mujer se sorprendio
al ver al carretonero
aqui no damos limosna
no queremos pordioceros
vale mas que se retire
y no vuelva limosnero
que pronto se te olvido
que fui tu esposo primero
nos dejaste por otro hombre
que tiene mucho dinero
aqui muerto traigo a tu hijo
le dijo el carretonero
saco una pistola escuadra
de su morral que traia
antes de morir a mi hijo
le jure te encontraria
solamente que no supo
que despues te mataria
le disparo seis balazos
al cuerpo de la señora
tu amante tiene dinero
para que te entierre ahora
ya mijo trai su cajon
solo faltas tu traidora
a mi que me echen pal monte
hablo con mucha tristesa
al abrazarse de su hijo
se aferraba con firmeza
despues levanto su brazo
se disparo en la cabeza
