Bob Dylan's, "Romance in Durango"
The Lyrics:
"No Llores mi querida,
Dios nos vigila,
Soon the horse will take us to Durango,
Agarrame, mi vida..."
Dios nos vigila,
Soon the horse will take us to Durango,
Agarrame, mi vida..."
Why:
In English: "Don't cry, my love,/ God is watching us,/ Soon the horse will take us to Durango,/ Hold onto me, my life..." The narrator of the song is an outlaw on the run with a woman who is presumably the mistress or wife of the man the narrator shot. The couple seek shelter in Durango, but the song, and the narrator's life, end before they get there.
