Today is the day that the famous 'El Moro de Cumpas' race had occured back March 17, 1957 in the town of Agua Prieta. This song is based on the real race that happened between two horses and it was such a huge deal, people started betting not only money, but farmland, cars, even their hats. You can guess how many people had to hitchhike home after the race. http://youtu.be/YURfTjYEN1o El Moro de Cumpas El diecisiete de marzo, [On the seventeenth of March,] a la ciudad de Agua Prieta [to the city of Agua Prieta] vino gente de dondequiera; [people came from all over; ] vinieron a las carreras [they came to the races] de Relámpago y
