An old man came limping
At the doors of a palenque
A Gallo Giro carried
And he showed it to the people
Also a lot of money
I wanted a very strong fight
There in Aguascalientes
A Derby was held
And when that old man entered
He challenged the cockfighters
I wanted to play two million
To an extraordinary fight
Quite very upset
A man stood up
He told him: Limping, damn
I will take away your mouthiness
I would like your bet more
If you double the value
After they made the deal
They showed a red
His class was Johnnie Jumper
Legitimate American
All bettors
At the turn they turned
When the roosters threw
In the air they grabbed
The Giro backed down
Cut from the breast
But he sang in the ring
El Colorado had died
The Gimp of the Rooster Giro
He impressed the cockpits
Because he was carrying a bag
Bursting with money
In a town in Chihuahua
There's your chicken coop
