As far as I can see it's 'bulerias por arriba'

'Aqui se acabaron los porfios
Se acabaron los porfios
que tu te quedas con tu madre
me quedo yo con la mia.'

'porfio' = credit

Through an iPhone it sounds like he's staying on the b2 chord - (the singing makes me think it could also go to the iv chord)
If your counting 12's it falls on the 10 ( the 5th accent of the compas ) ` stays there for a compas
Then resolves with a half compas to tonic ( into the 10 )
So two and a half compas

- which may feel like somewhere between 3 & 4 if your still counting 12's :-)

he's really pushing and ahead of the accents -
he pulls/hammers of the first finger on the F shape (bii) chord giving it a moorish edge to sound -

Think that's right -
Guess try to feel it - follow the singing
Thanks btw - enjoyed that - earthy

This is what I can understand. Some of the verses are from Pansequito songs :

... Utrera
tú te vas a venir conmigo, gitana
y serás mi compañera

tú me has hecho de sufrir
tú no vales nada
nada para mí

tu cara bonita
tu pelo precioso
tu cuerpo perfecto
tu corazón roto

se acabaron las porfías
que tú te quedas con tu madre
me quedo yo con la mía

(???)

amanecer en el campo
amanecer en el mar
amanecer es tan bello que
amanecer es amar

para quererte

que te calles, que te calles
que te tengo tapaítas
cositas que nadie sabe
