Clave 7

Code 7

Clave 7

At the checkpoint on the hillEn el reten de la loma
There were a hundred federal agentsEstaban cien federales
Asking for PedritoPreguntando por Pedrito
Also for Paulino BurgosTambién por Paulino Burgos
But they were confusedPero estaban despistados
They asked a muteLe preguntaron a un mudo

Code 7 is the orderClave 7 es la consigna
For agents and soldiersDe agentes y de soldados
That lion has grown a maneEse león ya creó melena
They will have to kill himVan a tener que matarlo
Just don't risk too muchNo más no se arriesguen mucho
First, you have to betray himPrimero hay que traicionarlo

In the city of HermosilloEn la ciudad de Hermosillo
There was a gatheringHabía una concentración
They also set up checkpointsTambién pusieron retenes
Throughout the nationEn todita la nación
The sad thing is that the transportsLo triste es que los transportes
Pedrito gave them awayPedrito los regaló

They sent an agentLe mandaron un agente
To ask for moneyQue le pidiera dinero
20 million pesos20 millones de pesos
Was the price for his skinEra el precio de su cuero
But since he was cunningPero como era camuco
They took him prisonerLo llevaron prisioneros

Along with six companionsJunto con seis compañeros
Plus two young ladiesAdemás dos señoriticas
They took them to the GreekLos llevaron a la griega
It was the final meetingEra la última cita
There they were riddledAhí los acribillaron
Along with the ladiesJunto con las señoritas

Since that unforgettable dayDesde ese día inolvidable
Not as much money flowsNo rola tanto dinero
Some traitorous agentsUnos agentes traidores
Now drive new carsAhora estrenan carro nuevo
And a man in GuadalajaraY un hombre en Guadalajara
Can't sleep out of pure fearNo duerme de puro miedo

Goodbye, Mr. CommanderAdiós señor comandante
I have you on my listAquí lo llevo en mi lista
You set me upUsted me echó por delante
I'll be waiting for you in the magazineAhí lo espero en la revista
Since you knocked down my beehiveYa que tumbó mi panal
Now face the waspsAhora toree las avispas

I won't surrender my weaponsMis armas no las entrego
They will stay in the hillVan a quedar en el cerro
I don't trust friendsNo me fio de los amigos
Who are dazzled by moneyQue los deslumbra el dinero
The lion of the mountains has diedYa murió el león de la sierra
Come and take his skinVengan a quitarle el cuero

Goodbye to all my friendsAdiós todos mis amigos
From the Culiacán valleyDel valle de Culiacán
No law of the governmentNinguna ley del gobierno
Can change my nameMi nombre podrá cambiar
My name is Pedro AvilésMe llamo Pedro Avilés
Don't forget itNo se les vaya a olvidar
