Jaquima to freno
He's an old vaquero
Dealers of Reno
He's been to the ocean
Big long tapaderos hangin' both sides
Of an old Visalia tree
Hey Mr. Vaquero
Put a handle on my pony for me
Teach me the mystery
Jaquima to freno
He's an old Amansador
He been down to the rodear ground
Seen him on the movie screen
Ah but sometimes I think he's like America
Only see him in your dreams
Did they sing all day
Did they dance all night
Did they ride their spade bit ponies
Through the golden light
Did they find true love
Was it all a bunch of lies
Quien sabe, maybe it was paradise
(repeat first verse, choruses 1 and 2 in that order)
