El chaparro

The Short One

El chaparro

He carries a slanted rifleUn rifle terciado trae
And a satellite radioY Un radio satelital
He has a sharp brainTrae el cerebro bien pilas
Patrolling the hillPor el cerro patrullando
Sometimes they see him pass byA veces lo ven pasar

I walk around on the 2Me paseo por la 2
35 and my town35 y mi pueblo
I take responsibility for my actionsYo respondo por mis actos
Although I am very calmAunque yo soy muy calmado
I also heat upTambién me acciono en calor

Uncovering a big bottleDestapando un boteson
And a gallon between lipsY entre labios un gallón
He blows smoke into the windAvienta el humo pal viento
A smile appears on the face of the ChavalonUna sonrisa se asoma en el rostro del Chavalon

They must see him as simpleSencillo lo han de mirar
With his buddy GalletaCon su compa el Galleta
They have a very good careerTienen muy buena carrera
Since he was a kid, he's always ready to workDesde morro es aventado siempre listo pa chambear

He brings knowledge to plantTrae escuela pa plantar
The plants will soon giveLas matitas ya darán
One hundred percent with his buddy YubeAl cien con el compa Yube
The business is pulling through to enjoy lifeEl negocio va jalando pa la vida disfrutar

I'm just ChaparroSoy Chaparro así nomas
Another rooster to forgeOtro gallo hay que forjar
We must be very relaxedHay que andar bien relajados
See you there, I say goodbye, we'll see each other in IxtlánAhí nos vemos me despido nos miramos por Ixtlán
