Doña Ubensa
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.
Ando llorando p´adentro
aunque me ría p´afuera
así tengo yo que vivir
esperando a que me muera.
Le doy ventaja a los vientos
porque no puedo volar
hasta que agarro mi caja
y la empiezo a bagualear.
Mi raza reza, qué pedirá
allá en el monte de caridad,
no tiene tiempo, ya no da más,
reza que reza, por qué será.
Valles sonoros de pedregal,
piedra por piedra el viento va
borrando huellas a mi dolor,
silencio puro es mi corazón.
Me persigno por si acaso
no vaya que Dios exista
y me lleve p´al infierno
con todas mis ovejitas.
No sé si habrá otro mundo
donde las almas suspiran,
yo vivo sobre la tierra
trajinando todo el día.
