Uno sabe dónde nace, pero nunca dónde acaba
You know where you are born, but you never know where you end up
Estado pegado al Golfo, Tamaulipas, tierra brava
State attached to the Gulf, Tamaulipas, brave land
Donde los hombres valientes siempre mueren en la raya
Where brave men always die on the line
Hoy le tocó a Mario Alberto un capitán de caminos
Today it was Mario Alberto's turn to be a highway captain
Dos balas de alto poder le marcaron su destino
Two high-powered bullets marked his destiny
Duele más una traición pensar que estás entre amigos
A betrayal hurts more to think that you are among friends
Los que mataron a Mario sabían que no se rajaba
Those who killed Mario knew that he did not give up
Que los tenía en su lugar aparte que le sobraban
That he had them in their place apart from the excess
Agallas pa´ reclamar si el diablo lo traicionaba
Guts to complain if the devil betrayed him
Patrulla de blanco y negro ya no llores tu sirena
Black and white patrol, don't cry your siren anymore
Que el capitán Mario Méndez sabía morir a la buena
That Captain Mario Méndez knew how to die the right way
Por encargarte sus armas hoy está bajo la tierra
For ordering his weapons from you, today he is underground
Oscar le había dicho a Mario que desarmado no fuera

Mi avión ya sale a Tampico ya no hay tiempo de traerlas

Voy a ver a mi mujer que en Tamaulipas me espera
I'm going to see my wife who is waiting for me in Tamaulipas
En una Chevrolet plateada llegaron al aeropuerto
In a silver Chevrolet they arrived at the airport
Por Mario dos compañeros que lo llevarían al puerto
For Mario, two companions who would take him to the port
Y ya no se supo nada hasta que lo hallaron muerto
And nothing was known until they found him dead
Hará falta en nuestras filas un hombre de gran valor
A man of great courage will be missing in our ranks
Un experto en explosivos dijo el señor director
An explosives expert said the director
Antonio Arizpe Míreles al capitán Ruiz Godoy
Antonio Arizpe Look at Captain Ruiz Godoy
Patrulla de blanco y negro ya no llores tu sirena
Black and white patrol, don't cry your siren anymore
Que el capitán Mario Méndez sabía morir a la buena

En Zamora, Michoacán nació y descansa en su tierra
