A Mi Madresita

To My Mommy

A Mi Madresita

My mommy asksPregunto mi madresita
Why so much moneyQ porq tanto dinero
The poor thing doesn't knowLa pobresita no sabe
That I am a prisonerQ me encuentro prisionero
For killing someonePor matar a una persona
That the drug dealers asked me to doQ los narcos me pidieron

If you kill that cowardSi matas a ese cobarde
Your people will be safeTu gente va a estar segura
If you go to jailSi tu te vas a la carcel
Don't have the slightest doubtNo tengas la menor duda
Your people will have everythingTu gente tendra de todo
Until the day you rotAsta el dia q tu te pudras

In a letter my motherEn una carta mi madre
Asks what I doDise q a q me dediko
If she knew I am in prisonSi supiera q estoy preso
For committing a crimePor cometer un delito
For the good of my familyPor el bien de mi familia
I became a killerMe converti en asesino

The letters that reach meLas cartas q a mi me llegan
Are brought by other menMe las traen otros señores
From here I replyYo desde aqi le contesto
Putting different addressesPoniendo otras direcciones
If I tell them I'm in prisonSi les digo q estoy preso
It would hurt their heartsDañaria sus corazones

Locked up for lifeEncerrado d por vida
Behind these damn barsEn estas malditas rejas
In the United StatesEn los estados unidos
In the state of TexasEn el estado de texas
I have no doubt they'll kill meNo dudo q me asesinen
They already have the laws in placeYa tienen las leyes puestas

Yesterday they sent the bodyAyer mandaron el cuerpo
Of an inmate who was in prisonDe un reo q estaba en presidio
They say he hanged himself by forceDisen q se aorco a la fuerza
Only caused his own suicideSolo causo su suicidio
He had a letter in his handsTenia una carta en sus manos
His mother had passed awaySu madre abia fallecido
