Escucha Primo
Patio De Los Reyes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cementerio donde vivo, donde me ivan llevar. Mama y
Habla con el jué, que me dé la libertad. Yo no niego
Haber robado ni tampoco haber matado, yo no tengo esa
Fé ni tampoco la tendré.
En el patio de godella hay un charco y no a llovio,
Son las lágrimas de un preso que a entrado y no a salio.
Cuando salga de godella con mi mare me encontraré
Con un porrito en la mano una rosa y un clavel
