Maria Garcia, the hooker, met Padre (??) Ramon Before you could say that "popes like to pray" The priest fell in love with the whore Augusto's a friend of the padre A sober and scholarly man Said "go padre, take Maria away Before the shit hits the fan." Vaya con dios, amigos May God go with you my friend Let's drink a toast say adios til we meet again Tomorrow they head for the border Tonight they sleep in the hills The padre was eager to go get his beaver Maria to practice her skills In the hills they met with Hernando A crazy, despicable hound The padre was raped, Maria was snaked They buried them both in the ground Vaya con Dios, amigos May God go with you my friend Let's drink a toast, say "adios" 'Til we meet again Vaya con Dios amigos May God go with you my friend I'll say an "ole" and be on my way 'Til we meet again Hernando got killed in a gunfight A row over another man's wife A shot to the head, bandito was dead They cut his body up with a knife In the small little town of San Pedro When the people come to a feast The village still talks of the ghosts that walk The bandit, the whore, and the priest Vaya con dios May God go with you my friend Let's drink a toast And say adios 'Tl we meet again Vaya con dios amigos May God go with you my friend Hasta la vista and know that I'll miss ya 'Til we meet again
