Verse 1
I warned you
With me, you'd be better, but you didn't believe me
You like to suffer
I warned you
And at the first fight good that you wrote to me
That you want to come
I warned you, but you didn't care
That's why you and I are friends
If I'm your handkerchief of tears
Tell me how it ended
Chorus 1
How did it go with him? Did you do well?
Are you sad?
I told you that was an asshole
What a bad trip you had, and you know what?
I told you
I told you that I was the right one
I told you that I was the right one
Verse 2
I warned you, see that I don't lie?
I only have the face of a fool
And when you go, I'm coming
If your heart is broken, I'll fix it with little kisses
And me
Wanting to taking care of your heart
And you suffering for that bastard
It's just that I'm always here to comfort you
Yeah, if you want to come, I'll go
Chorus 2
How did it go with him? Did you do well?
Are you sad?
I told you that was an asshole
What a bad trip you had, and you know what?
I told you
I told you that I was the right one
I told you that I was the right one
Outro 1
But what's the need?
Just to twerk like this, just because?
That guy doesn't care about you
Friend, realize
Outro 2
But what's the need?
Just to twerk like this, just because?
That guy doesn't care about you
Friend, realize

SONG MEANING

El Correcto feels like a lively heart-to-heart between close friends who know each other a little too well. Reik and Carin León step into the role of the loyal confidant who kept saying “Te lo advertí” — I warned you — while their friend ran off with the wrong guy. Every line is a playful I-told-you-so, spiced up with Mexican slang, as the singers remind her that the other guy was “un pendejo” and that they were “el correcto” all along.

Behind the teasing, the song carries a warm offer of comfort. The narrator may be frustrated, but he is ready to fix her broken heart “a besitos” and prove he is the real deal. It is an upbeat pop track that mixes swagger with genuine care, encouraging listeners to spot red flags sooner and appreciate the people who truly have their back — often the ones who were right in front of them the whole time.
