Allá en el rancho grande
Mariachi Pulido Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Allá en el rancho grande,
allá donde vivía...
había una rancherita,
que alegre me decía;
que alegre me decía...

Te voy a hacer tus calzones...
como los que usa el ranchero...
Te los comienzo de lana...
y los acabo de cuero...

Allá en el rancho grande,
allá donde vivía...
había una rancherita,
que alegre me decía;
que alegre me decía...

El gusto de lod rancheros...
Es tener su buen caballo...
Ensillarlo por las tardes...
Y darle vuelta al vallado...

Allá en el rancho grande...
allá donde vivía...
había una rancherita,
que alegre me decía;
que alegre me decía... ... Te voy hacer tu casita... En medio de los infiernos... Para que vivan las suegras... Que no quieran a sus yernos. ... Allá en el rancho grande,
allá donde vivía ...
había una rancherita,




que alegre me decía;
que alegre me decía ...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Mariachi Pulido's song Alla en el Rancho Grande tell the story of a happy rancherita who lived in a remote ranch. She was known for making clothes for the rancheros, and in the song, she boasts about making a pair of calzones for the singer, just like the ones worn by the rancheros. She starts making them with wool and finishes them with leather. As the song progresses, the lyrics talk about the simple pleasures of ranch life, like the joy of owning a good horse and riding through the vallado (fenced area) in the evenings.


Towards the end of the song, the rancherita declares that she will build a house in the middle of the "infiernos" (hell) for the mothers-in-law who don't love their sons-in-law. This line is meant to be playful and humorous, and overall, the song paints a picture of a carefree life in the peaceful countryside.
