Linda Ronstadt

Songwriter: Jose Lopez

Producer: Peter Asher

!Ay, que laureles tan verdes!
!Que rosas tan encendidas!
Si piensas abandonarme mejor quitame la vida;
Alza los ojos a verme
Si no estas comprometido

Eres mata de algodon
Que vives en el capullo;
Ay, que tristeza me da
Cuando te llenas de orgullo
De ver a mi corazon
Enredado con el tuyo!

Eres rosa de castilla
Que solo en mayo se ve
Quisiera hacerte un invite
Pero la verda no se
Si tiene quien te lo evite
Mejor me separare

Por "ai" va la despedida
Chinito por tus quereres
La perdicion de los hombres
Son las benditas mujeres;

Y aqui se acaban cantando
Los versos de los laureles
