Recordando Monterrey
Rigo Tovar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ahí, y que recuerdos!
Al obispado,pió décimo,independencia, ahí!

Quiero tanto a una ciudad
Y tan grande y tan preciosa
Me trae bonitos recuerdos cuando yo la e visitado,
Que rodeada por su cerro de la silla y sierra madre
Con su cola de caballo y sus grutas de garcía

Monterrey donde los crepúsculos son tan lindos y sus bellas tardes
Monterrey donde las mañanas son tan preciosas y tan cadenciosas
Monterrey la ciudad que sin playas y sin palmeras es tan bullanguera




Monterrey no te olvidare y te recordare hasta que yo me muera
Monterrey te recordare y no te olvidare hasta que yo me muera
