En un ranchito apartado
In a secluded ranch
Crecí con mucha pobreza
I grew up with a lot of poverty
Era el más pobre del rancho
He was the poorest on the ranch
Pero traigo en mi cabeza
But I have in my head
Regresar alivianado
Return relieved
Y ayudar al que se pueda
And help whoever you can
Les va a parecer curioso
It will seem curious to you
Cómo me cambió la vida
How it changed my life
Después que anduve de piojo
After I walked like a louse
Voy con todo y voy pa' arriba
I'm going with everything and I'm going up
Antes cuidaba unas vacas
I used to take care of some cows
Ahora, las vacas son mías
Now the cows are mine
A mucha gente he ayudado
I have helped many people
Y no me siento Malverde
And I don't feel Malverde
Pues, nunca se me ha olvidado
Well, I have never forgotten
Lo que yo sufrí de plebe
What I suffered as a plebe
Hay veces que el pato nada
There are times when the duck swims
Y, hay veces, que ni agua bebe
And, there are times, he doesn't even drink water
La vida da muchas vueltas
Life takes many turns
Conmigo, la dio completa
With me, he gave it completely
Cambié por una Mercedes
I changed for a Mercedes
Esa vieja bicicleta
That old bicycle
Al fin, yo vivo mi vida
Finally, I live my life
Porque sé que no es eterna
Because I know that it is not eternal
Y estos son Los Recoditos, oiga
And these are Los Recoditos, listen
Au, au, ya-yay
Au, au, ya-yay
Les va a parecer curioso
It will seem curious to you
Cómo me cambió la vida
How it changed my life
Después que anduve de piojo
After I walked like a louse
Voy con todo y voy pa' arriba
I'm going with everything and I'm going up
Antes cuidaba unas vacas
I used to take care of some cows
Ahora, las vacas son mías
Now the cows are mine
A mucha gente he ayudado
I have helped many people
Y no me siento Malverde
And I don't feel Malverde
Pues, nunca se me ha olvidado
Well, I have never forgotten
Lo que yo sufrí de plebe
What I suffered as a plebe
Hay veces que el pato nada
There are times when the duck swims
Y, hay veces, que ni agua bebe
And, there are times, he doesn't even drink water
La vida da muchas vueltas
Life takes many turns
Conmigo, la dio completa
With me, he gave it completely
Cambié por una Mercedes
I changed for a Mercedes
Esa vieja bicicleta
That old bicycle
Al fin, yo vivo mi vida
Finally, I live my life
Porque sé que no es eterna
Because I know that it is not eternal
Hay veces que el pato nada
There are times when the duck swims
Y, hay veces, que ni agua bebe
And, there are times, he doesn't even drink water
