I'm the owner of the palenque
Four letters go up front
I'm from pure Michoacán
Where that is the Tierra Caliente
I'm the lord of the roosters
The one from the Jalisco cartel
I have fighting roosters
That fight for my side
We change the blades
For R's and AKs
For fifties and anti-aircrafts
And monsters for the roads
Armed wings that I have
The Elite and the Warriors
To the masters of terror
The Delta and the Gardener's
Also the 85
At the orders of Mencho
Merino, loyal partner
Once that they get out of confinement
We're waiting for them
Two, your command remains here
And also to my princess
I already want them by my side
Come, compadre Tuli
These are things that life does
We're already in this ring
There's wins and losses
And even though I'm a man of war
I love my family very much
From the one and three, a greeting goes
For all my boys
And keep it well in mind
That they're people of the four
Letters that the cartel has
And it's from the lord of the roosters

SONG MEANING

El Del Palenque throws you straight into the adrenaline-charged universe of a cartel boss who compares his criminal empire to a palenque, the traditional Mexican arena for cockfights. Proudly stating he is from Tierra Caliente in Michoacán, the narrator presents himself as el señor de los gallos — a champion of roosters who now commands human “fighters.” Every feathered image hides a harsher reality: the “gallos de pelea” are actually armed men, and the razor blades once tied to a rooster’s spur have been upgraded to AK-47s, .50-caliber rifles, and armored “monstruos” that rumble along Mexico’s backroads.

Behind the bravado sits an intricate web of loyalty. The singer shouts out several feared factions — Elite, Guerreros, Delta, Jardinero, 85 — all fighting under the four-letter banner of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel and its infamous leader, Mencho. Yet in the middle of this warlike boasting, he slips in warm greetings to his comrades, his princess, and his family, reminding listeners that even the toughest warriors crave connection. The corrido is both a swagger-filled roll call of firepower and a glimpse into the personal codes of honor that bind people together inside a violent world.
