Letra de La Chamuscada

• La Chamuscada:

  It's sort of a play of words for me on "chamuco" (which is what we also call the "devil" which is often depicted as a burnt and miserable being) and the word "chamuscar" which is to burn or scorch something.

• soldadera:

  Soldaderas, often called Adelitas, were women in the military who participated in the conflict of the Mexican Revolution, ranging from commanding officers to combatants to camp followers. "In many respects, the Mexican revolution was not only a men's but a women's revolution."Although some revolutionary women achieved officer status, coronelas, "there are no reports of a woman achieving the rank of general."Since revolutionary armies did not have formal ranks, some women officers were called generala or coronela, even though they commanded relatively few men.
