Pateando Latas Lyrics in English Grupo Marca Registrada
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Pateando Latas by Grupo Marca Registrada from Spanish to English.
De Mexicali cruzo con los gringos
From Mexicali I cross with the gringos
Y de LA, voy para el terre del frío
And from L.A. I'm off to the cold turf
Yo soy Fernando y me serví dos veces
I'm Fernando and I served myself twice
Por comer callado y sin hacer ruido
For eating quiet and not makin' noise
Pateando latas y buscando jale
Kicking cans and hunting for work
No me alcanzaba y tuve que buscarle
It wasn't enough, I had to hustle more
Abrí mi mente y crucé la frontera
I opened my mind and crossed the border
Pues de mi familia yo era el responsable
’Cause my family was on me
Fui desmadroso pero nunca un flojo
I was wild but never lazy
Rodeado de muchos, amigo de pocos
Surrounded by many, friend to few
Muchos creyeron que me estaba hundiendo
Lots thought I was sinking
Algunos corrieron qué poca fe tuvieron
Some ran off, such little faith they had
En el pueblo la vida es bonita de más
Back home life’s way too pretty
Le llevo flores a mi hermano también a mi apa
I bring flowers to my brother and to my dad
Ya la vida me los quito
Life already took them from me
Pero por ellos lucho yo
But I fight for them
Pa conseguir lo conseguido, tuve que entrar en acción
To get what I got, I had to jump into action
Ya la he perreado con mi hermano el Chaco
I've grinded it out with my brother Chaco
También hay triunfos juntos realizados
We’ve scored some wins together too
Aunque el gobierno ya me ha correteado
Even though the government’s chased me already
No uso la violencia, tampoco soy dejado
I don’t use violence, but I’m no pushover
Dejé el pasado pa ver mi futuro
I dropped the past to see my future
Tengo ya tiempo qué bateamos duro
Been swinging hard for a while now
Y mis dos damas que nunca me falten
And may my two ladies never leave me
Una es mi señora y la otra es mi madre
One’s my wife and the other’s my mother
Buenas comidas, finos restaurantes
Good meals, fancy restaurants
Desempeñándome en varios lugares
Working my craft in all kinds of spots
Con los vecinos metiéndoles jale
Hooking the neighbors up with work
Por ahí suena el Cape pa los que no saben
You’ll hear “El Cape” out there for the ones who don’t know
Y a todos les toca parte del pastel
And everybody gets a piece of the cake
Si yo gano todos ganan a como debe de ser
If I win everybody wins, the way it oughta be
A Dios le agradezco yo
I thank God
Por todo lo que me dio
For everything He gave me
Y si les doy un regalo, se los doy de corazón
And if I give you a gift, I give it from the heart
