Corrido Del 24

Ballad of the 24

Corrido Del 24

They call me the 24Me dicen el 24
Among important peopleEntre la gente important
My friends and relativesMis amigos y parientes
Also call me TecateTambien me llaman tecate

I was born in the mountainsYo soy nacido en la sierra
In the town of the 'S'En el pueblo de la ese
In the business where I walkEn el negocio donde ando
Death is being riskedSe anda rifando la muerte

Let Adan Romero come nowQue ya venga adan romero
To sing my balladsA cantarme mis corridos
Bring weed and beerTraigan perico y cerveza
Also bottles of wineTambien botellas de vino

I have always been responsibleSiempre he sido responsable
That's why I have a placePor eso tengo un lugar
And at the right momentY en el momento preciso
I have known how to play itMe la he sabido jugar

I bring a crowd under my commandTraigo plebada en mi mando
As I also have a bossComo tambien tengo jefe
Whom I respect a lotAkien yo respeto mucho
Because he is a brave manPorque es un hombre valiente

The numbers are strongLos numeros andan fuertes
It's well known by everyonePor todos es muy sabido
Things are going wellLas cosas se ponen bien
Because we are very unitedPorque somos muy unidos
