El Consentido

The Favorite

El Consentido

From Chiapas to TijuanaDe Chiapas hasta Tijuana
Truly men are bornDe veras que nacen hombres
I could talk about a dozenPodría hablar de una docena
But I don't want you to be surprisedMas no quiero que te asombres

I better send you greetingsMejor les mando un saludo
And I reserve the namesY me reservo los nombres

The friend was born in GuerreroEn Guerrero nació el compa
That today I deserve the runQue hoy me merece el corrido
Very brave, not at all crookedMuy valiente, nada chueco
God is a spoiledDe Dios es un consentido

It will be because he is a good guySerá porque es buen pelao'
And he's not conceitedY no anda de presumido

On top of a good horseArriba de un buen caballo
Or falling in love with your belovedO enamorando a su amada
He knows how to enjoy his life wellSabe gozar bien su vida
Sometimes threatenedA veces, amenazada

And thanks heavenY le da gracias al cielo
who has not denied him anythingQue no le ha negado nada

I don't sing to arrogant peopleNo le canto a prepotentes
I don't even sing to braggartsNi le canto a fanfarrones
It's good to have moneyEs bueno tener dinero
But listen to me two reasonsPero óiganme dos razones

It's better to have friendsEs mejor tener amigos
And wear your pants wellY traer bien puestos los pantalones

That's how the friend also thinksAsí también piensa el compa
That today I deserve the runQue hoy me merece el corrido
Very brave, not at all crookedMuy valiente, nada chueco
God is a spoiledDe Dios es un consentido

It will be because he is a good guySerá porque es buen pelao'
And he's not conceitedY no anda de presumido

On top of a good horseArriba de un buen caballo
Or falling in love with your belovedO enamorando a su amada
He knows how to enjoy his life wellSabe gozar bien su vida
Sometimes threatenedA veces, amenazada

And thanks heavenY le da gracias al cielo
Who has not denied him anythingQue no le ha negado nada

On top of a good horseArriba de un buen caballo
Or falling in love with your belovedO enamorando a su amada
He knows how to enjoy his life wellSabe gozar bien su vida
Sometimes threatenedA veces, amenazada

And thanks heavenY le da gracias al cielo
who has not denied him anythingQue no le ha negado nada
