Dios bendiga
las calles lindas de mi isla
las calles lindas de mi tierra
las caras lindas de mi gente negra

cuidao' en la calle
cuidao' con quien andes
recuerda una cosa
las balas no tiene nombre
cuidao' en la calle
cuidao'con quien andes
recuerda una cosa
las balas no tiene nombre





llegó el gran winchester, el 30-30
flamingo haciendo conexiones de New York a Puerto Rico
