Alto Y Piel Morena Lyrics in English Edgardo Nunez
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Alto Y Piel Morena by Edgardo Nunez from Spanish to English.
Alto y Piel Morena
Tall and Brown Skin
Por ahí de los corridones
Around the corridos
Vamos a enviarlo
We're gonna send it
Saludos pa toda la gente del Southside
Greetings to all the people from the Southside
Fierro, dice compa Pablo
Iron, says compa Pablo
Yo nací allá en la pobreza
I was born there in poverty
Y esa me fue acompañando
And that was accompanying me
De las 12 hasta las 6
From 12 to 6
Cuándo yo vivía en él barrió
When I lived in the neighborhood
Me enredé en la delincuencia
I got tangled up in delinquency
Y vieran cómo me a gustado ese trabajo
And you would see how much I liked that job
Por el Southside finikera
In the Southside finikera
Me miraban ruleteando
They saw me cruising
De dickies y tenis nike
In dickies and Nike sneakers
Cuando no tenia un centavo
When I didn't have a penny
Y buscándole a la papa
And looking for the potato
Conocí a alguien y me puse hacer mandados
I met someone and started running errands
Armas con madera fina
Guns with fine wood
Y unos cuetes color negro
And some black fireworks
Que el miedo lo traigo a un lado
I carry fear on the side
Por debajo del asiento
Under the seat
Y un chavo de pura oreja
And a guy with just ears
Segurito fue pa espantarnos el sueño
Surely went to scare us in our sleep
Unas cuantas veladoras
A few candles
Casas repletas de hierba
Houses full of weed
Por allá en terrenos indios
Over there in Indian lands
Todo el tiempo la vi cerca
All the time I saw her close
Me correteaba la migra
The border patrol chased me
Y yo adelante nunca quise dar reversa
And I never wanted to reverse
Ea, mi compa Richie
Hey, my compa Richie
Me empezó a cambiar la suerte
Started changing my luck
De la noche a la mañana
Overnight
Y atrás quedaron las brechas
And the gaps were left behind
Y esas trocas bien cargadas
And those trucks well loaded
Tres teléfonos sonaban en caliente
Three phones rang hot
Y en caliente arremangaba
And I rolled up my sleeves hot
Mi nombre queda olvidado
My name is forgotten
Solamente está mi apodo
Only my nickname remains
Y eso de tarea les dejo
And that task I leave to them
Lo traigo en mi 38
I carry it in my 38
Soy alto de piel morena
I'm tall with brown skin
Tatuado y con toda la finta de cholo
Tattooed and with all the cholo style
Un bluntsito pa'l estrés
A little blunt for stress
Con waxito y O.G master
With wax and O.G master
No es que quiera presumir
It's not that I want to show off
Pero me gusta enfiestarme
But I like to party
Y que toque mi compa Martin Patrón
And have my compa Martin Patrón play
Que ahora quiero emborracharme
Now I want to get drunk
Alto y Piel Morena
Tall and Brown Skin
Por ahí saludazos
Greetings over there
Pa toda la plebada del Southside
To all the people from the Southside
Comoa Bozo
Like Bozo
Compa Molote
Compa Molote
Puro Imperio, viejo
Pure Empire, man
Saludazos
Greetings
