Fui soldado de francisco villa
De aquel hombre de fama inmortal
Que aunque estuvo sentado en la silla
No envidiara la presidencial.
Ahora vivo allá por la orilla
Recordando aquel tiempo inmortal,
Ayayay,
Ahora vivo allá por la orilla
Recordando a villa allá por parral.
Yo fui uno de aquellos dorados
Que con tiempo llegó a ser mayor
En la lucha quedamos lisiados
Defendiendo la patria y honor.
Hoy recuerdo los tiempos pasados
Que peleamos con el invasor
Ayayay,
Hoy recuerdo los tiempos pasados
De aquellos dorados que yo fui mayor.
Mi caballo que tanto montaba
En jiménez la muerte alcanzó
Una bala que a mí me tocaba
A su cuerpo se le atravesó.
Al morir de dolor relinchaba
Por la patria la vida entregó
Ayayay,
Al morir de dolor relinchaba
Cómo le lloraba cuando se murió.
Pancho villa te llevo grabado
En mi mente y en mi corazón
Y aunque a veces me vi derrotado
Por las fuerzas de álvaro obregón
Siempre anduve como fiel soldado
Hasta el fin de la revolución
Ayayay,
Siempre anduve como fiel soldado
Que tanto ha luchado al pie del cañón.
