Si saben que el perro es bravo

Pa' que le hacen ademanes
Pa 'that make gestures
Ya les he dado el consejo

Y no han querido escucharme
And they have not wanted to listen to me
Mis armas se desesperan
My weapons despair
Y yo tengo que jalarles
And I have to pull them
Yo tengo la mano dura
I have a hard hand
Con los que me juegan chueco

No me gusta que me miren
I don't like them to look at me
La carita de conejo
Rabbit face
Yo pongo mis propias leyes
I put my own laws
Pa que me tengan respeto
So that they have respect me
No me cuido del gobierno

Me cuido de los traidores

La competencia me teme

Y ofrece muchos millones

Desean acabar conmigo

Pero he llenado panteones

Hay clientes muy importantes

En los estados gabachos

Y a los que pagan a tiempo

Les encimo diez pedazos

Ya polvora trae mi sangre

No puedo vivir sin armas

Aunque a veces me dan ganas

Mi modo este es mi ramo

Adonde voy que mas valga

Si mi nombre no lo saben

Analicen el corrido

O preguntenle al boludo

Que me vigila el camino

Les contestara con balas

Que a mi me apodan el primo
