Ballad of Feliciano

Corrido de Feliciano

Good afternoon my friendBuenas tardes mi amigo
I am looking for youA usted ando buscando
He said mockinglyDijo en tono de burla
That man in blackAquel hombre de negro
With an Italian bagCon bolso italiano
How can I help youEn que puedo servirle
Feliciano replied...Contesto feliciano...

Pay attentionPreste usted atencion
I don't want to talk muchQue no quiero hablar mucho
I come with the missionVengo con la consigna
To sow your landsDe sembrar sus tierras
With our productCon nuestro producto
If it sounds like a threatSi le suena amenaza
Then you've hit the mark...Pues a dado en el punto...

I'm going to give you this bagVoy a darle esta bolsa
Full of moneyRepleta de dinero
That is more than enoughQue le basta y le sobra
For you to leavePara que se large
This dumpDe este mugrero
You better accept itMas vale que lo acepte
Or I'll make a mess...O le hare un cohinero...

Smiling FelicianoFeliciano sonriente
Shook his headNego con la cabeza
He said no thank you very muchLe dijo no muchas gracias
I don't sell my ranchNo vendo mi rancho
Nor my landsTampoco mis tierras
Go back where you came fromVaya por donde vino
And may God protect you...Y que dios lo protega...

(And this goes all the way(Y esta va hasta
To the Picachos Choix SinaloaLos picachos choix sinaloa
Where the old wind also blows)Que tambien hace aire viejo)

Old man, you can't imagineViejo no te imaginas
Who you're dealing withCon quien estas tratando
Said the stubborn manDijo el hombre emperrado
And with a gunY con una pistola
He aimed at FelicianoApunto a feliciano
If I find you tomorrowSi te encuentro mañana
Tomorrow I'll kill you...Mañana si te mato...

Just as he saidTal y como lo dijo
An armed convoy arrivedLlego un comboy armado
There were plenty of menEran bastantes hombres
As if ready to fightComo pa pelear
In a coupEn un golpe de estado
They had orders from aboveTraian orden de arriba
To tear down the ranch...Despedasen el rancho...

I'll kill you laterA usted luego lo mato
First your familyPrimero a su familia
You don't mess with meConmigo no se juega
That man was sayingLe decia aquel hombre
And suddenlyY de forma repentina
From the mountain jumpedDesde el monte brincaba
A group of marines...Un peloton de la marina...

The shootout beganSe solto la balacera
It seemed like a warParecia la misma guerra
In the confrontationEn el enfrentamiento
Several diedVarios se murieron
And this story is trueY esta historia es cierta
Feliciano also diedTambien murio feliciano
Defending his lands.Por defender sus tierras.
