Translation, Please. Spanish to English
The Spanish lyrics in this song, "Skin Game", from the movie The Border.
Here are the English lyrics, I'm looking for a translation of the Spanish words. Thanks... . Ay, Amigo. Don't pass me by Here we got everything that money can buy Now it's a place where a face ain't got no name Down here everybody's playing that ol' skin game Down in Mexico, Mexico Where a boy can be a man down on Mexico Down by the river through a rolling fog I'm the man make you walk the log We're workin' on the coke 'n the price is right Are you lookin' for a lover, are you lookin' for a fight Mexico, Mexico A boy can be a man down in Mexico ~~~~~~~~~~`

I see nothing.
Thought that some here could give me a rough idea of what the hell they're chanting. Lots of "macho"...I know that much. Come on, boys.

I am form Spain and can't understand a word they are saying
 but I'll try my best.They repeat 4 words or sentences over and over. What I get is: "El caballo" The horse "No fue macho" Wasn`t macho or wasn't male (macho means just male in Spanish) "Pendenciero" one who looks for fights "A Don Nacho" to Mr. Ignatius Seriously, I can't do better. |

Thank you Paco...what a forum!!! . "El caballo" The horse - Heroin is known on the street as 'horse'. . "Pendenciero" one who looks for fights - Mentioned in the lyrics > "Are you lookin' for a lover, are you lookin' for a fight" . This is good. ...Thanks again. ~~~~~~~~~~ BTW, quite a tune, eh? From Ry Cooder's album "The Border"
