Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Fuga Del Rojo by Los Tigres del Norte from Spanish to English.
El carro ya se paró
The car has already stopped
Ya esta cayendo la tarde
The evening is falling
Y a mí me late teniente
And I have a feeling, lieutenant
Que va a sudar pa' llevarme
That you're going to sweat to take me
Mira rojo no le busques
Look, don't look for trouble
Te voy a soltar las manos
I'm going to release your hands
Pero me dices tu nombre
But you tell me your name
Y a dónde iba el contrabando
And where was the smuggling going
Ya me arrancaron las plantas
They already ripped out my plants
Y me amarraron las manos
And tied my hands
Y con tantas calentadas
And with so many beatings
El nombre se me ha olvidado
I've forgotten the name
Tú deberías de saber
You should know
Somos casos diferentes
We are different cases
Yo soy hombre natural
I am a natural man
A ti te hicieron teniente
They made you a lieutenant
Mas cómo voy a escaparme
But how am I going to escape
Te voy a contar un cuento
I'm going to tell you a story
600 mil centenarios
600 thousand centenarios
Era el robo de Sarmiento
Was Sarmiento's robbery
Lo lleve a San Salvador
I took it to San Salvador
Y así ayudé al movimiento
And thus helped the movement
Te escapas desde Chicago
You escape from Chicago
Y también de Nueva York
And also from New York
Y aquí me llega un reporte
And here I receive a report
Que te robaste un avión
That you stole a plane
Me acusan de muchas cosas
They accuse me of many things
Pero nada han comprobado
But they haven't proven anything
Ni siquiera traen mi nombre
They don't even have my name
De plano andan despistados
They are clearly confused
Como lo había prometido
As I had promised
El rojo se les fugó
The red one escaped from them
El rojo no es asesino
The red one is not a killer
La vida les respetó
Life spared them
Puedes usar tu pistola
You can use your gun
Ya logré soltar mis manos
I managed to release my hands
Y ahora que estamos parejos
And now that we are even
Te noto que estás temblando
I notice that you're trembling
Ahí te dejo estas granadas
I leave you these grenades
Amarrada por detrás
Tied up from behind
Ya les quité la espoleta
I already removed the fuse
Ay tú, si quieres volar
Oh you, if you want to fly
Le dices al Comandante
Tell the Commander
Que en Durango me ha de hallar
That he will find me in Durango
