Juan José he

is valid
he sings
all the way
to Vallodolid

What's that he said
"polloco"?
Or did he say we saw
the zapalote.

Hey, Man!
he's a buzzard
with his bones
all over his shirt
on the way
to Chemax.

And he speaks fast
the real stuff
Let's take a taxi
to Tixcacaltuyub.

He says his uncles
are his mother's brothers
saying, singing
with that bottle in his hand
he's ringing.

Wind him up
with movies, books
handsome smile
in his white jipijapa
Hey, Man!
he's the one
from Mazatlan.
