Home / Lyrics Translation / REI / Tu Turrito

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tu Turrito by REI from Spanish to English.

And who was gonna know that you were my woman?

But babe, you left me so alone and I think about you every day I roll up

And I drew your initials on a wall

You don't leave my mind

And now you act like a diva

When I run into you on the corner

And I remember your screams

Saying that I was your little thug

And now you act like a diva

When I run into you on the corner

And I remember your screams

Saying that I was your little thug

On a wall your name next to mine

Now I think and say if there's no more reasons

And the songs I make for you are because I think about you

If this love had dimensions, it'd be immense

I love you since we started, I mean, from the beginning

It's not that I'm toxic, I'm just a little intense

We're a classic like the .40 and Kendo

You're my inspiration, you're the purest thing I have

You're the memories in the lines I'm writing

And I'm telling you

Now I'm going, tell me if this ends or keeps going

Whoever wants to come along better tighten their boots

Cause I don't write you rhymes, I write you what my heart asks for

I'm CF, babe

Who was gonna know that you were my woman?

But babe, you left me so alone and I think about you every day I roll up

And I drew your initials on a wall

You don't leave my mind

And now you act like a diva

When I run into you on the corner

And I remember your screams

Saying that I was your little thug

And now you act like a diva

When I run into you on the corner

And I remember your screams

Saying that I was your little thug

And who was gonna know that she was my woman?

But babe, you left me so alone and I think about you every day I roll up

And I drew your initials on a wall

You don't leave my mind

SONG MEANING

Picture a night in the Buenos Aires barrio: graffiti glows under neon lights, smoke curls in the air, and REI together with Callejero Fino pours his heart out in Tu Turrito. The phrase 'turrito' is street slang for a tough, swaggering guy, yet here it becomes a tender nickname shouted by an ex-girlfriend who once claimed him as her own. The song captures that bittersweet moment after a breakup when pride and pain collide. He rolls another joint, sees her initials on a wall he painted, and wonders how something that felt immenso could disappear so fast.

What makes the track irresistible is the contrast between bold urban beats and raw vulnerability. One minute he flexes like a barrio legend; the next he confesses that every rhyme is driven by her memory. The chorus loops like a thought you cannot shake: she now acts aloof on the corner, but he still hears her voice calling him 'mi turrito'. It is a catchy ode to undying love, Argentine slang, and the way youthful passion can be both messy and poetic at the same time.
