Ta muy malo el corralero
Y ahí en el potrero
Como viejo está
Hay que ayudarlo a que muera
Para que no sufra más
Siempre fuiste el más certero
Y por eso debes su mal aliviar
¿Cómo pretenden que yo?
Que lo cuidé de potrillo
Clave en su pecho un cuchillo
Porque el patrón lo ordenó
Dejenló nomás pastar
No rechacé en mi consejo
Que yo lo voy a enterrar
Cuando se muera de viejo
Junto al estero del bajo
Lo encontré tendido
Casi al expirar
Me acerqué muy lentamente
Y se lo quise explicar
Pero al verlo resignado
Me tembló la mano
Y me puse a llorar
¿Cómo pretenden que yo?
Que lo cuidé de potrillo
Clave en su pecho un cuchillo
Porque el patrón lo ordenó
Dejenló nomás pastar
Lo rechacé en mi consejo
Que yo lo voy a enterrar
Cuando se muera de viejo
