La Maleta
Sueños y meta en la maleta
Pal otro lado me la tube que llevar
Altas y bajas, desde la baja
Hasta Kentucky me tocaba pilotear
Era arriesgado pero me avente el volado
Varias monedas me la tube que rifar
Ya varios fletes, y con eso hice billetes
Y las envidias no se hicieron esperar
Que en que trabaja, que como le hace
Trae 5 carros y ganábamos igual
Gente envidiosa y sisañosa
Que mas disfrutan si te miran fracasar
Corone vueltas, con la maleta en la mano
Sentia la viada y billete habia de mas
Se me iso maña, queria mas cueros de rana
Los benjamines nunca me an caído mal
Llegue a mi tierra, me dio tristeza
A mi jefita nunca la pude verbear
Llegue a su casa a saludarla
Pero de mi ya le habian hablado muy mal
Que donde andaba? Que que pasaba?
Que hasta cuando me pensaba controlar
Me dio tristeza, puse en la mesa
Unos billetes que ella no quiso agarrar
Dijo mi madre, tu ya eres padre
Y en tus hijos no te pones a pensar
La ultima vuelta, con la maleta
Esta es la última se lo prometo ama
Deje pendientes y negocios en Kentucky
Y una cuentita que me tienen que pagar
Iva fajado, motivado acompañado
Y de repente me detuvo un oficial
La vida recia, así se empieza
Y por desgracia así tiene que terminar
Llegue hasta Texas, después las rejas
Y una condena es la que tengo que pagar
Mi madre sufre y me bendice desde casa
Mi esposa e hijos se que me van a extrañar
Era arriesgado pero era un volado
Y la moneda al aire tiene que girar
Se que fui necio y andube recio
A la pobreza no me pude acostumbrar
Ahora estoy preso y sin un peso
Como en casino no me supe retirar
Mi madre reza se que le pesa
Mas no es su culpa yo me la quise rifar
No llore madre, ya no este triste
Yo solo espero que me pueda perdonar
The Suitcase
Dreams and goals in the suitcase
Had to take it to the other side
Highs and lows, from the low
Had to drive all the way to Kentucky
It was risky but I took the chance
Had to gamble a few coins
Made some cash with several loads
And the envy came quick
What does he do? How does he manage?
He’s got five cars and we made the same
Jealous people, always scheming
They enjoy it more when they see you fail
I made the rounds, suitcase in hand
Felt the life and had extra cash
I got crafty, wanted more frog skins
The young bucks never bothered me
I got back home, felt sad
Couldn’t even see my dear mom
Went to her house to greet her
But they’d already talked bad about me
Where have you been? What’s going on?
When were you planning to settle down?
It made me sad, I put on the table
Some cash she didn’t want to take
My mother said, you’re a father now
And you don’t think about your kids
The last round, with the suitcase
This is the last one, I promise, mom
Left some business and pending deals in Kentucky
And a little bill they owe me
I was strapped, motivated, with company
And suddenly an officer stopped me
Life is tough, that’s how it starts
And unfortunately, that’s how it has to end
I made it to Texas, then the bars
And a sentence is what I have to pay
My mother suffers and blesses me from home
I know my wife and kids will miss me
It was risky but it was a gamble
And the coin in the air has to spin
I know I was stubborn and reckless
Couldn’t get used to being poor
Now I’m locked up and broke
Like in a casino, I didn’t know when to quit
My mother prays, I know it weighs on her
But it’s not her fault, I wanted to take the risk
Don’t cry, mom, don’t be sad
I just hope you can forgive me
