Soy un hombre muy honrado, que me gusta lo mejor
Las mujeres no me faltan, ni al dinero, ni el amor
Jineteando en mi caballo, por la sierra yo me voy
Las estrellas y la luna, ellas me dicen donde voy

Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, mi amor
Ay, mi morena
De mi corazon

Soy un hombre muy honrado, que me gusta lo mejor
Las mujeres no me faltan, ni al dinero, ni el amor
Jineteando en mi caballo, por la sierra yo me voy
Las estrellas y la luna, ellas me dicen donde voy

Me gusta tocar guitarra, me gusta cantar el son
Mariachi me acompana, quando canto my cancion
Me gustan tomar mis copas, aguardiente es lo mejor
Tanbien la tequilla blanca, con cu sal le da sabor

Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, mi amor
Ay, mi morena
De mi corazon

Me gusta tocar guitarra, me gusta cantar el sol
Mariachi me acompana, quando canto my cancion
Me gustan tomar mis copas, aguardiente es lo mejor
Tanbien la tequilla blanca, con cu sal le da sabor

Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, mi amor
Ay, mi morena
De mi corazon

Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, mi amor
Ay, mi morena
De mi corazon
(Ay ay ay)

Very cool song, here are revised lyrics, a few glitches with those on display.

Me gustan tomar mis copas, aguardiente es lo mejor
También la tequila blanca, con cu sal le da sabor

Ay, ay, ay, ay

hahaha, this just makes my dayayayayayayay 

(aside: for those of you who like authentic cooking as much as music, Roberto Rodriguez does a mean cochinita pibil grandma style, definitely worth a try)

Order doesn't matter with those!
My guitar teacher and I worked our fingers to the bone to catch the right rhythm and the solo of that musical bomb when it was aired for the first time. We eventually did, and made quite a furore on Slaveykov Square in Sofia. Some German TV recorded and broadcasted our performance. Man, those were the days. :)
This whole soundtrack is awesome!
Excellent!!  I never heard this tune before.  Thank You RP!

Are you kidding?  Los Lobos on backup could make ME sound good, and I assure you that's no small accomplishment.

Some of the best two minutes ever recoded.

Oh yeah!! {#Bananajam}
I wonder if Mr Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman whistled this happy little ditty all the way back to cell block 'try get the fuck out of here'!! {#Cowboy}
HA! Alive by PJ, then this. Could they be more different? What fun.
Grande Banderas!!

He can be a pretty goog actor (better with Almodovar than in Hollywood though!), and even if not a great singer, this is a very nice performance of a classic, Wow!
Aye yi yi!
(and I mean that in a good way) {#Music}
uuurgh!

hate to admit I really Like this
Wow!!  NOBODY plays this song!!  Nice work, Billiam... : )
OMG Antonio Banderas, amazing to picture him singing this.
I assume that was David Hidalgo playing the 'lead' guitar parts. Anyone know?
From Kent to this without any warning, I think my ears have whiplash. But it's a good kind of hurt. {#Roflol}
Very amusing
nice
this would be a good time to post a pic of Salma Hayek from Desperado/El Mariachi. Please play some thing from Dusk till Dawn soon.


Hey ! Can we have a little privacy here, we're trying to eat....  pass the Chicken Mole...
 thanks.....
Well ya I liked em, but man that huge bass guitar right in my face .  . .eeaah.
God, ya just inhaled those jalapeno poppers.

just awful


I officially need a margarita and some chips & guacamole now... thanks a bunch RP.


With all due respect to Mr. Banderas ... he should stick to acting, which *sometimes* he actually did pretty well (in particular, at the beginning of his career when working with Pedro Almodovar) ... Salud! {#Cheers}
How come the average rating is just 7 ? {#Snooty}

Pepe MARIACHI by ~JoniGodoy

El Mariachi es un folklor, un completo orgullo de México.

Por diez días cada año podemos ver el "Festival internacional del Mariachi" en Guadalajara (donde nacieron mis abuelos, un bello estado cuyos nativos no me dejarán mentir). Aquí más de 500 mariachis se juntan en una celebración de música apasionada que es donde late el corazón de los mexicanos.
Cada persona que se haya enamorado con los tríos de Mariachi -o con las melodías de sus canciones- saben que esto cautiva a cualquiera aunque sea principiante en ésta música hermosa, enérgica.

El Mariachi es simplemente ... el Espíritu de México.
AJÚUAAAAAA!

I love it when Antonio was walking on the bar during the guitar solo and then bashed that guy in the face with his guitar and then went back to playing like nothing happened.  I think I saw Desperado 12 times in the theater.  ahhh, memories


 
Robert Rodriguez was the commencement speaker at the University of Texas (Austin) last May (seems he and my daughter are in the same graduating class - his graduation was deferred slightly after the overnight success of his movie El Mariachi which he developed while a student).
He opened by saying that he had always wanted to wear a black evening gown - HA!

Love Love Love!!! In English, French, Australian, American, even Hollandish: Corazon ( mi corazon = my corazon = : take your pick
Pronunciation. Spanish.
1. the heart.
2. courage; spirit.
3. love; affection; compassion or sympathy.
4. (often used in direct address as a term of endearment) lover; beloved.
 
Es cierto. Muchas gracias. {#Hug}
No way! I just watched this movie again a couple of days ago and have had this soundtrack in steady rotation in my car. Awesome song, awesome soundtrack, cheesy fun movie.
Love the music, but love Antonio Banderas more.....Swoon!
THXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Scene 451 – The italian uncle is stoned and wandering through the estate  . . .  enjoying the mariachi dancers, their effusive perfume, the seductive smiles, and radiant garments flailing in the ecstasy of abandon and libation. He (the uncle) sits on the veranda and reaches for his pipe. The sun is dropping below the vineyards. "Magnificent!," he thinks. "this is the majesty of creation, reaching beyond the cosmos . . . into my view."

What's next Bill?  Calexico and Iron and Wine doing a cover of Spanish Caravan with Javier Bardem on vocals?     {#Hearteyes}    {#Dancingbanana_2}

Amazing to think we were listening to Kraftwerk - Autobahn 3 songs ago...Bill you are amazing.
if you would like to further experience the vastness of antonio banderas' talent, look no further.

I think you misread the tone. This is meant to be comedy. Or tongue in cheek tribute to a genre. Or just fun.

And here I thought it was Puss... in Boots.
The production values on Desperado were much higher, of course, but I thought El Mariachi was more of a film than a movie.
What is this? Why?
whoa! it's the nasonex bee singing!
Really, this is Shoe's favorite song.

Bad and foolish. So called mexican music with a Spanish ridiculous actor?
totally dig this one. My friend put it on a mix for me a while back. Happily surprised to now hear it on RP!!
NO!!! Too SEXY!!!!
When did RP switch to Spanish format??
*swoon* Me encanta. (I'd switch from French to Spanish for Antonio Banderas. It wouldn't be pretty, but I'd do it.) He's so underrated as a singer. I wish he'd do more Broadway, or release his own album, or something.
Being male, it makes me feel bad when a female artist gets lurid comments based soley on her looks. But after reading these posts about Antonio... not so much any more.
love it and it has been followed by another latin sounding (the doors - spanish caravan) classic

It's enough to just imagine Antonio singing, but the fact that he's pretty good makes it all that much better. Muy Divertido!
Amen! I didn't know this song was released and available. I'm picturing him on that bar right now. Heartfelt sigh....
This is such a great song! Have been listening to it for years now and it never gets old... I always wondered if this was really antonio banderas (I guess I cannot imagine him without that "puss in the boots" accent any longer)

Quite nice to imagine Banderas singing with the hat and stuffs...
Thank you RP! This is one of my favorite songs!
Zorro sings!
Where can I find a guy that is as wonderful and sexy as Antonio Banderas??? Aye Yi Yi Yi.........

omigawd, that's funny!

I'd rather SEE Salma...in anything (or nothing, I'm not picky). ;-) Cool tune, and just shows how Lobos continue to make good music without taking themselves too seriously.
AyAyAyAyyy... I like it :D

Actually he is a really cool guy, he still makes his movies in Spain, when he start making movies in America he already had a long history acting. Marley wrote:

If you like this soundtrack (Deperado) try to listen to Tarantula and also Los Cruzados, both Tito Larriva Bands, a bato from LA, by the way he also acts in "Desperado" and in "From Dusk till Dawn."
Sounds like the first Los Lobos LP I listened to in 1982...
