Sentado en una hielera y escuchando un corrido
Sitting in a cooler and listening to a corrido
Le jale a un cuerno de chivo, rodeado de mis amigos
I pulled a goat horn, surrounded by my friends
Con los versos recordaba todo lo que en vida he sido
With the verses I remembered everything that I have been in life
Se me calentó el terreno, me buscaban por mafioso
The ground got hot, they were looking for me as a mafioso
Me achacaron varias muertes
Several deaths were blamed on me
Por la prensa publicaron, y como si fuera poco, hasta rifles me achacaron
They published in the press, and as if that were not enough, they even accused me of rifles
Me pierdo por temporada, cuando no hay que dar la cara
I lose myself by season, when you don't have to show your face
Me oscurece y me amanece si se trata de una chamba
It gets dark and dawns on me if it's a chamba
Yo no tengo quien me empuje, sólito me aviento al agua
I don't have anyone to push me, I just throw myself into the water
Me gusta escuchar consejos, pero no me mandan nada
I like to listen to advice, but they don't send me anything
Cuando algo me sale mal, a mi nadie me regaña
When something goes wrong, nobody scolds me
Me paseo por donde quiera con damas y camaradas
I walk wherever I want with ladies and comrades
No me pregunten quien soy, y menos en que trabajo
Don't ask me who I am, let alone what I work for
Pero ponganme una prueba para que vean si me rajo
But give me a test so they can see if I crack
El que es gallo se le nota, no ocupa tanto relajo
The one who is a rooster shows it, he does not occupy so much relaxation
El diablo traigo en las venas, por eso a todo le atoro
I carry the devil in my veins, that's why I get stuck in everything
No tengo miedo me gusta tener cerquitas el toro
I'm not afraid I like to be close to the bull
No me importa que sea bravo de dos patadas lo domo
I don't care that he is brave with two kicks I tame him
Me encanta ver rafageando finitos cuernos de chivo
I love to see thin goat horns bursting
Para mi es lo mas grandioso y bonito que he vivido
For me it is the greatest and most beautiful thing I have ever experienced
Me siento muy orgulloso siempre lo traigo conmigo
I feel very proud I always bring it with me
De mi nombre no se nada, hace tiempo lo perdí
I don't know anything about my name, I lost it a long time ago
De mi apodo se poquito, por ahí en China lo oí
I know little about my nickname, over there in China I heard it
Me contaron que es un santo, pero no se los creí
They told me that he is a saint, but I did not believe them
Por las calles de Tijuana, me pueden ver patrullando
Through the streets of Tijuana, you can see me patrolling
Aunque no traigo charola pa' que si salde sobrando
Although I do not bring a tray so that if there is leftover
Que se cuiden esos vatos que por ahí se andan pasando
Take care of those vatos that are passing by
Soy amigo de la raza, del compa B ni se diga
I am a friend of the race, of compa B, don't even say it
Con mi gente donde sea y con gusto doy la vida
With my people wherever and with pleasure I give my life
La misma muerte me teme, por eso no se me arrima
Death itself fears me, that's why it doesn't come close to me
Ahora se que ojos que peiné y con todo viene arrasando
Now I know what eyes I combed and with everything it comes destroying
Yo pongo a parir chayotes a los que voy agarrando
I give birth to chayotes that I grab
En mi camino está duro no se anden atravesando
On my way it is hard, do not cross
