Caminos De Michoacan

Lyrics

Cariñito ¿dónde te andas?
¿Con quién te andarás paseando?
Presiento que no me engañas
Por eso te ando buscando
Vengo de tierras lejanas
Nomás por ti preguntando

Me dieron razón que andabas
En la tierras Michoacana
Que de La Piedad viajabas
Al rumbo de La Huacana
Te vieron cuando pasabas
Por Zamora y Nueva Italia

CORO
Caminos de Michoacán
Y pueblos que voy pasando
Si saben en dónde está
¿Por qué me la están negando?
Díganle que ando en Sahuayo
Y voy pa' Ciudad Hidalgo

Yo te seguiré buscando
En esas tierras tan bellas
De Zitácuaro a Huetamo
De Apatzingán a Morelia
Ya me sueño acariciando
Esa carita morena

A Uruapan iré a buscarte;
Tacámbaro y Pedernales
Pátzcuaro y Villa Escalante
También Ario de Rosales
A ver si logro encontrarte
Para remediar mis males

(REPITE CORO)

Composer(s)

Jose Alfredo Jimenez
José Alfredo Jiménez (born January 9, 1926 in Dolores Hidalgo, Guanajuato, died November 23, 1973 in Mexico City, Mexico) was a Mexican singer-songwriter in the ranchera style.

His songs are considered part of the Mexican musical heritage and comparable, for instance, to what Woody Guthrie meant to American folk music.

He had no musical training—according to the singer Miguel Aceves Mejía, Jiménez didn't play an instrument and didn't even know the Spanish terms for "waltz" and "key". Nonetheless he composed more than 1000 songs. Among the most famous are Ella, Media Vuelta, El Rey, El Jinete, Si Nos Dejan, Amanecí Entre Tus Brazos, Cuando el Destino, El Caballo Blanco, Llegó Borracho el Borracho and Que Te Vaya Bonito, as well as Camino de Guanajuato, where he sang about his home state of Guanajuato as well as his home town of Dolores Hidalgo Guanajuato.

In addition to his own hit recordings, many of his songs have been recorded successfully by recording artists around the Spanish-speaking world, most notably by Pedro Infante, Rocío Durcal, Javier Solís, Pedro Fernández, Jorge Negrete, Vikki Carr, Luis Miguel, Lola Beltrán, Lucha Villa, Vicente Fernández and by spaniards Joaquín Sabina and Manolo García.
