El Preso Numero Nueve Lyrics


El preso numero nueve ya lo van a confesar
esta encerrado en la celda con el cura del penal
y antes del amanecer la vida le han de quitar
porque mato a su mujer y a un amigo desleal
Dice asi al confesar
los mate si senor
y si vuelvo a nacer
yo los vuelvo a matarPadre no me arrepiento
ni me da miedo la eternidad
yo se que elle en el cielo
el sser supremo nos juzgara
voy a seguir sus pasos
voy a buscarlos al mas alla.ay. yayayayayyyyyEl preso numero nueve era un hombre muy cabal
iba en la noche del pueblo muy contento en su jacal
pero al mirar a su amor en los brazos de su rival
ardi en el pecho el rencor y no se pudo aguantar
al sonar el clarin se formo el pelotn
iban al paredn solo alcanzo a decir:Padre no me arrepiento ni me da miedo la eternidad

yo se que elle en el cielo el ser supremo nos juzgara
voy a seguir sus pasos voy a buscarlos al mas alla.ay. yayayayayyyyy yaay

Joan Baez, born on January 9th, 1941, is an American folk singer and a songwriter who is of mixed Mexican and Scottish descent. Baez rose to prominence in the early '60s with her stunning renditions of traditional balladry.

In the late '60s and early '70s, Baez came into her songwriting own, penning many songs (most notably "Diamonds & Rust," a nostalgic piece about her ill-fated romance with Bob Dylan, and "Sweet Sir Galahad," a song about sister Mimi Fariña's ( of Richard & Mimi Fariña fame) second marriage, and continued to meld her songcraft with topical issues. She was outspoken in her disapproval of the Vietnam war and later the CIA-backed coups in many Latin American countries.

She was also instrumental in the Civil Rights movement, marching with Dr. Martin Luther King on many occassions and being jailed for her beliefs. In 1963, her performance of "We Shall Overcome" at the Lincoln Memorial just prior to Dr. King's famous "I Have A Dream..." speech helped confirm the song as the Civil Rights anthem.

In December 1972, she traveled to Hanoi, North Vietnam, and was caught in that country's "Christmas Campaign," in which the U.S. bombed the city more times than any other during the entire war. While pregnant with her only son, Gabriel, she performed a handful of songs in the middle of the night on day one of the 1969 Woodstock festival. She is considered the "Queen of Folk" for being at the forefront of the 1960s folk revival and inspiring generations of female folksingers that followed. Over fifty years after she first began singing publicly in 1958, Joan Baez continues to tour, demonstrate in favor of human rights and nonviolence, and release albums for a world of devoted fans.
