Mexicali caloron es el desierto
Mexicali caloron is the desert
Que por cierto fue en Abril
Which by the way was in April
Cuando nacio el compa Chalo
When Compa Chalo was born
En su infancia que no podria contarles
In his childhood that I could not tell them
Voy ablarles del morrillo
I'm going to take you from the nose
Que anduvo por esas calles
Who walked those streets
Po la Hidalgo y la Esperanza
Po la Hidalgo and La Esperanza
Por las villas y las cachas
For the villas and the cachas
Cuantos pleitos no surgieron por ahi
How many lawsuits did not arise out there
Tengo amigos de respeto y mis hermanos
I have friends of respect and my brothers
Siempre brincaron por mi
They always jumped for me
Son mis hijos la razon de mi alegria
My children are the reason for my joy
Y de mi vida y mis initos
And of my life and my initos
El orgullo de su padre
His Father's Pride
Soy muy fuerte no me doblo facilmente
I'm very strong I don't bend easily
Y en mi mente va el recuerdo
And in my mind goes the memory
De un gan ser que fue mi madre
Of a gan ser who was my mother
Se adelanto a la otra vida
He anticipated the afterlife
Fue triste la despedida
It was sad the farewell
Pero se que pronto la vuelvo a mirar
But I know I'll look at it again soon.
Y vi un sueño con el dia
And I saw a dream with the day
Que a mi gordita yo la vuelva acariciar
May I caress my chubby again
(Mexicali ay nomas)
(Mexicali ay nomas)
Soy Don Chalo y en la glicol
I'm Don Chalo and in glycol
Eh nacido y si preguntan
Eh born and if you ask
Por el barrio en la seguille es bienbenido
For the neighborhood in the seguille is wellbenido
Mis sobrinos siempre han estado conmigo
My nephews have always been with me
Y aunque no tienen su padre
And even though they don't have their father.
Por el viejo estan al tiro
By the old man they are at the shot
Deciciones de la vida
Life Decisions
Quien baja y quien ba pa' arriba
Who goes down and who goes down and who goes up
Y en segundos las cosas pueden cambiar
And in seconds things can change
Va forjando su destino
He is forging his destiny
A paso firme aunque se encuentra
At a steady pace although it is
Donde esta
Where is he
Del apoyo se muy bien que no estoy solo
From the support I know very well that I am not alone
Compa Luis y compa Toni

Que aremangan en caliente
That aremangan in hot
El negro y el Josesillo estan al tiro
El negro and el Josesillo are on target
El Rubencillo vien lo sabe que cuenta

Conmigo siempre
With me always
Mi patron en tinta negra
My pattern in black ink
Mi apellido mi leyenda

''Soy Don Chalo'' y asi se me va a quedar
''I'm Don Chalo'' and that's how I'm going to stay
Y escuchando este corrido
And listening to this corrido
Ando enfiestado
Ando enfiestado
Que lo vuelvan a cantar
Let them sing it again
