I was 20 and I started as a kid
_____
Working hard, struggling at it
_____
Sending product to the gringos up north
And I started to multiply it
_____
Serious, wealthy people, I started to connect with
And now they can't knock me down
_____
Kicked back in a brand-new truck to patrol
_____
And there you see them, they want to copy me
_____
Dear God, thanks for one more day of life
_____
You're with me always, whatever happens
_____
And here we stay real solid in the hustle
_____
We've got the gringos doing bumps
_____
I know that one day the day of my departure will come, but today
_____
Today I don't think that'll happen
_____
Even though we gamble with our lives I don't pray
That's how Ovi sounds, bro
And his buddy Nat, old-timers
_____
Nothing but corridos tumbados, man
_____
There's a lot of envy, but it doesn't scare me
They're just zeros on the left
_____
They want to bring me down, that's not true
_____
They don't dare, they ain't got b*lls
_____
I really walk the crooked path, why talk to them any more?
_____
I don't get it, I don't understand, I'd rather light one up
_____
Dear God, thanks for one more day of life
_____
You're with me always, whatever happens
_____
And here we stay real solid in the hustle
_____
We've got the gringos doing bumps
_____
With death at my side and tattooed clear on my skin
_____
Saint Jude on my chest, a charm that I carry
And that's how they sound
_____
The corridos tumbados, dog
