En la escuela vendía papas, ahora me caen pacas

Las cosas no son igual que el día de ayer

Muchas veces criticado y en instancias humillado

Pero nada me ha podido vencer
But nothing could defeat me
El destino de mi hermano, algo que yo he heredado

Por las calles de Reinosa me han de ver
They must see me on the streets of Reinosa
Me gustó mucho el comercio, ahora mi negocio tengo
I really liked commerce, now I have my business
En esa tierra que a mi me vió nacer
In that land that saw me born
Entre el humo de un cigarro me acuerdo de mi pasado
Between the smoke of a cigarette I remember my past
Cartoncitos de tabaco fui a vender
I went to sell tobacco cartons
Con mi mochilón a un lado, mi producto bien guardado
With my backpack aside, my product well stored
Los clientes de montones a la vez
Lots of customers at once
Mi cabeza siempre en alto, no importa lo que ha pasado
My head always held high, no matter what has happened
Aquí sigo, yo sé que muchos me ven

Una empresa ahora me cargo, ahorita yo tengo el mando

Gracias a Dios todo me ha salido bien

Pa' las cuentas hay cerebro, pa' las ventas al ingenio

Desde morro fui que yo empecé a vender
It was from the nose that I started selling
Buen producto mexicano, me hice bien solicitado

Por eso es que el negocio nunca dejé
That's why the business never left
Mucha gente se reía, en verdad que no creían
Many people laughed, in truth they did not believe
Que hoy tuviera lo que un día quise tener
That today I had what one day I wanted to have
Les faltó mucho cerebro para comprender mi sueño

Pero de ellos fue que nunca ocupé
But it was them that I never occupied
Un saludo pa' mis padres, también pa' mis amistades
Greetings to my parents, also to my friends
Gente con la que yo siempre navegué

Mi carnal mejor amigo, siempre piensa en positivo

Y sé que siempre puedo contar con él
And I know I can always count on him
Me despido en estos versos, me encuentro en mejores tiempos
I say goodbye in these verses, I find myself in better times
Gozando y trabajando a la vez

Que canten los Espinoza, mi corrido estimado
Let the Espinozas sing, my beloved corrido
Que la fiesta va para el amanecer
