Cancion Del Mariachi (Morena De Mi Corazon) Lyrics
Los Lobos
Lyrics
Soy un hombre muy honrado,
Que me gusta lo mejor
Las mujeres no me faltan,
Ni el dinero, ni el amor
Jineteando en mi caballo
Por la sierra yo me voy
Las estrellas y la luna
Ellas me dicen donde voy
Ay, ay, ay, ay,
Ay, ay mi amor
Ay, mi morena,
De mi corazon
Me gusta tocar guitarra
Me gusta cantar el sol
Un mariachi me acompana
Cuando canto mi cancion
Me gusta tomar mis copas
Aguardiente es lo mejor
Tambien el tequila blanco
Con su sal le da sabor
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay mi amor
Ay mi morena,
De mi corazon
Me gusta tocar guitarra
Me gusta cantar el sol
Mariachi me acompaña
Cuando canto mi canción
Me gusta tomar mis copas
Aguardiente es lo mejor
Tambien el tequila blanco
Con su sal le da sabor
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay mi amor
Ay, mi morena
De mi corazon
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay mi amor
Ay mi morena,
De mi corazon
