El Cherokon Lyrics in English Junior H

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Cherokon by Junior H from Spanish to English.
Distinguished in the fire, Cherokón SRT
All set for the fight
When they see him waging war
I already gave them a dance and they still can't believe it
That the kid could pull it off
They won't be seeing him anymore
I am the one who deals the powder, you say what has to be done
I deal the good stuff
For the hustles I knew how to pull it off
Sports cars, an SRT
The party, a big banda wherever I am
Babes and homies
The ones who back me
The ones who dive in
He heads to Jalisco when there's nothing to do
And in Phoenix, Arizona he learned to move it
They want the good stuff
Call up Greñas
Look to my right
Here you go, buddy Fred
Through Phoenix, Arizona, ooo
I want to thank their support, especially the 16
I've been schooled since I was a kid
I picked it up from padrino Berna
How could I forget El Guayabo? The hill watched me grow
Among shortcuts and trails
I shout 'Up with the mountains'
I don't drop a code, low profile, they just call me Fred's
Or the one-armed guy from the mountains
The Beretta sends its regards
Sports cars, an SRT
The party, a big banda wherever I am
Babes and homies
The ones who back me
The ones who dive in
He heads to Jalisco when there's nothing to do
And in Phoenix, Arizona he learned to move it
They want the good stuff
Call up Greñas
Look to my right

SONG MEANING

El Cherokón drops listeners straight into the high-octane world of a young corrido tumbado protagonist who has traded dusty mountain trails for roaring SRT sports cars. Junior H paints a cinematic picture of someone who has “made it” in the narco scene: he learned the craft in the sierra, sharpened his hustle between Jalisco and Phoenix, and now rewards his crew with nonstop parties, banda music, and a sprinkle of danger. The lyrics pulse with bragging rights—fast rides, loyal friends, and the best “merchandise”—while never forgetting humble roots in the rugged hills that watched him grow.

Beneath the swagger, the song is really about status and gratitude. “El Cherokón” shows respect to mentors like Padrino Berna and “el 16,” underlining the code of loyalty that keeps the operation moving. Although he claims a low profile, the narrator can’t resist flaunting victories that once seemed impossible for a mountain kid. The result is an energetic anthem that mixes regional pride, risky ambition, and the thrill of proving doubters wrong—perfect for learners who want a slice of contemporary Mexican street lore wrapped in catchy melodies.
