Lyrics
Anselma
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Cuando te cases con el otro ire a tu boda,
Cuando pregunten en seguida me opendre,
Y si pregunta el jura que porque me opongo,
Yo le dire que porque tu eres mi querer,
Y si se enoja el que ira ser tu esposo.
Saco mi cuete y me pongo a disparar
Al fin y al cabo yo no le tengo a la muerte
Y voy al bote porque soy la autoridad
[Chorus:]
Ay! Anselma, Anselma, Anselma
Chaparra de mis penares,
O, dejas que te visite
O, te mando a los jendarmes
Y si te niegas a matrimoniar conmigo
Les quiteo el rancho y propiedad de tu papa
Les pongo ipuestos y hasta les quemo la casa
Porque por algo soy aqui la autoridad
Yo ordeno, y mando en todo este munisipio
Yo te lo digo por si quieres escapar
Aya en el otro el que manda es mi tio elijio
No mas le digo y te tiene que agarrar
[Chorus]
