History
Ricardo was born in the village of Jocotenango, near Antigua, Guatemala to Ricardo Arjona Moscoso and Noemí Morales de Arjona. When he was three years of age he and his family moved to Guatemala City.
He spent some time as a teacher at a rural primary school, where he reputedly said he spent three hours giving lessons and the rest of the day playing football. This earned him a visit from a Ministry of Education representative, who was sent to evaluate the level of education amongst Ricardo Arjona's pupils. The representative found that the students' level of education was actually above average.
Ricardo Arjona was a talented basketball player, and he played for the team Leones de Marte. He also toured Central America as a member of the Selección de básquetbol de Guatemala (Guatemala's National Basketball Team); until recently he held the record for the most points scored in a single game by a Guatemalan player.
Although he initially enrolled in architecture and engineering subjects, he eventually graduated with a degree from the School of Communication Sciences at the Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala (USAC).
At USAC there is a library hall that bears his name. There is also a street named for him in his birthplace, Jocotenango, Guatemala.

Y pisadas de fuego al andar
Su figura ya no es la de los quince
Pero el tiempo no sabe marchitar
Ese toque sensual y esa fuerza volcánica de su mirar
Señora de las cuatro décadas
Permítame descubrir
Y esa grasa abdominal
Que los aeróbicos no saben quitar
Señora, no le quite años a su vida
Póngale vida a los años que es mejor
Señora, no le quite años a su vida
Póngale vida a los años que es mejor
Porque nótelo usted, al hacer el amor
Siente las mismas cosquillas que sintió hace mucho más de veinte
Nótelo así de repente
Es usted amalgama perfecta
Entre experiencia y juventud
Señora de las cuatro décadas
Usted no necesita enseñar
Su figura detrás de un escote
Su talento está en manejar
Con más cuidado el arte de amar
Señora de las cuatro décadas
No insista en regresar a los treinta
Con sus cuarenta y tantos encima
Deja huellas por donde camina
Que la hacen dueña de cualquier lugar
Señora, no le quite años a su vida
Póngale vida a los años que es mejor
Señora, no le quite años a su vida
Póngale vida a los años que es mejor
Porque nótelo usted, al hacer el amor
Siente las mismas cosquillas que sintió hace mucho más de veinte
Nótelo así de repente
Es usted amalgama perfecta
Entre experiencia y juventud
Cómo sueño con usted señora, imagínese
Que no hablo de otra cosa que no sea de usted
¿Qué es lo que tengo que hacer, señora, para ver si se enamora?
De este diez años menor
Señora, no le quite años a su vida
Póngale vida a los años que es mejor
Señora, no le quite años a su vida
Póngale vida a los años que es mejor
Señora, no le quite años a su vida
Póngale vida a los años que es mejor
Señora
De las Cuatro Décadas by Ricardo Arjona is a song about a woman who is in her forties but is still attractive and desirable due to her sensuality and emotional strength. The song highlights that age is just a number, and one should not try to hide their age or obsess over looking young but instead embrace their experiences and live life to the fullest. The lyrics encourage the woman to put life into her years rather than trying to take years off her life.
The song speaks to the idea that someone's worth is not solely based on their physical appearance, and that the woman's talents and abilities to love and connect with her partner are more important than her age or physical appearance. It also touches on the idea that experience and youth can coexist, and the woman is described as the perfect amalgamation of both.
