El Abelito

The Little Abel

El Abelito

If I am the little AbelSi yo soy el abelito
That they talked so much aboutDel que tanto platicaban
That innocent boyAquel niño inofencivo
That nobody respectedAl que nadie respetaba
Now Abel has grown up, his words carry weight todayAhora ya crecio abelito hoy si pesan sus palabras

Bottles, hammer, and bandaBotellas martel y banda
X's for the plebeiansEkis so pa la plevada
A gun on his beltUna escuadra por el cinto
Of course, diamond-studdedPor supuesto endiamantada
A girl on one sideUna plebe por un lado
To his likingDe su gusto la muchacha

The boy with strong bloodDe sangre fuerte el muchacho
Had to be from SinaloaTenia que ser sinaloense
Educated and determinedEducado y desididio
He makes sure to be respectedBien ase que lo respeten
He always keeps his mother's blessing in mindLa bendicion de su madre siempre la tiene presente

He's seen arriving in GuamuchilLo mira llegar wamuchil
The boy always readyAl muchacho siempre al tiro
To settle some business, visit friendsA arreglar unos negocios visitar alos amigos
As soon as he finishes his roundsNomas sale de las vueltas
He heads to the United StatesSe va pa estados unidos

I am well supportedEstoy bien apoderado
My uncle has my backDe respaldo esta mi tio
And if there's a problemY si ai algun problema
I also have my cousinTambien cuento con mi primo
They know the way and stumble very littleEllos saben el camino y tropiesan muy pokito

I don't get discouraged by the front because I am very positivePor el frente yno m erajo por que soy bien positivo
And even if everything shakes here, I'm on the roadY auqnue todo se sacuda aqui voi en el camino
And even though I live in California, Sinaloa sees me oftenY aunque viva en california sinaloa me ve seguido

If I am the little AbelSi yo soy el abelito
That they talked so much aboutDel que tanto platicaban
That innocent boyAquel niño inofencivo
That nobody respectedAl que nadie respetaba
Now Abel has grown up, his words carry weight todayAhora ya crecio abelito hoy si pesan sus palabras
