El rey

»El rey« El rey is a popular Mexican song written by José Alfredo Jiménez (January 19, 1926–November 23, 1973), a musician with no musical training who is known for the large repertoire of lyrics that he wrote, among them »Amanecí en tus brazos« (I Woke Up in Your Arms) and »El caballo blanco« (White Horse). »El rey« is about a macho guy convinced his rough-and-tumble life doesn’t preclude him from remaining the king among his peers.
