Donde el asfalto termina,
brotes de barro lastiman
y los caballos del miedo,
desde la noche vigilan.
Cuando el descanso termina,
duendes del charco caminan
hay que secar la tristeza,
cuando en el llanto se arrima.
Donde termina el asfalto,
crecen los ranchos pa´ arriba
A ver si crecemos pueblo
como tierrita en la herida.
Agüita de la miseria
deja mis sueños, lleva mis penas.
Agüita de la miseria
deja mis sueños, lleva mis penas.
Donde el asfalto termina,
pasa con niños la vida
Quieren matarles los ojos
y equivocarles la risa
Cuando el demonio se anima,
fieras del barro lastiman
Hay que secar la tristeza
Cuando en el llanto se arrima
Donde termina el asfalto,
crecen los ranchos pa´ arriba
A ver si crecemos pueblo
como tierrita en la herida.
