Que Se Me Acabe La Vida

Lyrics

Que se me acabe la vida
Frente a una copa de vino
Y que te dija el destino
Que vas a vivir sin mi

Que se me cierren los ojos
Que fueron tu gran cari&ntilide;o
Y que se sienta en tu pecho
Deveras que ya me fui

Que se me acabe la vida
Y que tu la sigas viviendo
A ver si al cabo del tiempo
Tus labios se siguen riendo

CORO
A ver si saben poner
El mundo a tus pies
Como yo lo hacia
A ver si saben decir
Las cosas de amor
Que yo te decia

Que se me acabe la vida
Y que tu la sigas viviendo
A ver si al cabo del tiempo
Tus labios se siguen riendo

(REPITE CORO)

Que se me acabe la vida
Frente a una copa de vino

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.

Lucha Villa
As with her music, Lucha Villa specialized in rural and ranchera pictures, a genre especially connected to American audiences familiar with Westerns. During the 1960s, '70s, and '80s, she recorded dozens of albums and appeared in dozens of pictures, including the 1973 screwball comedy Mecánica Nacional, which won the Ariel award (Mexico's version of the Oscar). She also recorded songbook tributes to Jiménez and Juan Gabriel, and was saluted herself by Gabriel for his 1996 Las Tres Señoras (with Lola Beltran and Amalia Mendoza). Villa continued performing even after suffering a heart attack during surgery in 1997.
