Black Jet Horse
How could I forget you? I owe you my life
When they were going to execute me
The loyal forces of Pancho Villa

On a cloudy night
An advance party surprised me
And after being disarmed
I was sentenced to the firing squad

When I was already in the chapel
Villa told his assistant
"Set that horse aside for me
For being well-trained and obedient"

I knew I couldn't escape
And only thought about salvation
And you, my black jet
You thought the same as I did

I remember they told me
"Make a wish before your execution"
"I want to be executed
On my black jet horse"

And when they mounted me on you
And prepared the execution
You waited for my command
And you charged at the squad

With three Mauser shots
You ran, jet black, saving my life
What you did for me
Horse friend, I won't forget

I couldn't save yours
And the bitterness makes me cry
That's why, black jet
I will never ever forget you
