Yo No Me Rajo
Pedro Fernández Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Me corre por las venas
La sangre de un buen gallo
Y salgo a la pelea
Seguro de vencer

Acepto cualquier reto
No importa de quien venga
A la hora de la hora se sabe
Quien es quien

Igual que pancho villa
Me fajo hasta la muerte
Y así como zapata
Jamas me hecho a correr

En todas las batallas
Me tumban mis cañones
Que suene la campana
A ver quien va a perder

Yo no me rajo señores
Ni conozco el miedo
Ni importa si es uno o son montoneros
Por que a respetarme a todos le voy
A enseñar

Yo soy bravío
Yo soy un torero
Agarro a los bueyes
De los meros cuernos
Me les pongo en frente
Y en cada corrida
Los llego a doblar

Igual que pancho villa
Me fajo hasta la muerte
Y así como zapata
Jamas me hecho a correr

En todas las batallas
Me tumban mis cañones
Que suene la campana
A ver quien va a perder

Yo no me rajo señores
Ni conozco el miedo
Ni importa si es uno o son montoneros
Por que a respetarme a todos le voy
A enseñar

Yo soy bravío
Yo soy un torero
Agarro a los bueyes
De los meros cuernos
Me les pongo en frente




Y en cada corrida
Los llego a doblar
