Mi Tiendita

My Little Store

Mi Tiendita

I started from the bottom, gentlemenEmpeze desde abajo señores
Little by little, I always moved forwardPoco a poco fui siempre adelante
My little store was very exclusiveMi tiendita era muy exclusiva
I served only important peopleAtendia pura gente importante
Over time, the business grewCon el tiempo crecio el negosito
And now I am one of the big onesY ahora soy uno mas de los grandes

Poverty left my houseLa pobreza se fue de mi casa
And now money comes to me in sacksY hoy me llega el dinero en costales
The problems that ariseLos problemas que se me presentan
I solve them with monthly balesLos arreglo con pacas mensuales
That's why years have passedPor eso es que an pasado los años
And here I am with my animalsY aqui sigo con mis animales

My little store turned into groceriesMi tiendita se volvio abarrotes
My groceries turned into a marketMi abarrotes se volvio mercado
My market was no longer enoughMi mercado ya no daba basto
My clientele had tripledMi clientela se abia tripicado
I had to start my distributorTuve que hacer mi distribuidora
And now I supply stores and statesY ahora surto tienditas y estados

I will continue working on the same thingSeguire trabajando en lo mismo
I don't care about the risks I takeNo me importa los riegosque corra
My clientele deserves respectMi clientela merece respeto
That's why I'm open 24 hoursPor eso abro las 24 horas
I'm straight even though I work crookedSoy derecho aunque trabajo chueco
But that's how business is nowadaysPero asi es el negosio de ahora

How nice it is to have what you wantQue bonito es tener lo que quieres
And not ask anyone for anythingY no pedirle ni nada nadie
Money isn't everything in lifeEl dinero no es todo en la vida
But it sure helps, buddyPero como te ayuda compadre
If they ask about me, they haven't seen meSi preguntan por mi no me an visto
And if it's a dog, let it barkY si es perro pues dejen que ladre

My little store turned into groceriesMi tiendita se volvio abarrotes
My groceries turned into a marketMi abarrotes se volvio mercado
My market was no longer enoughMi mercado ya no daba basto
My clientele had tripledMi clientela se abia tripicado
I had to start my distributorTuve que hacer mi distribuidora
And now I supply stores and statesY ahora surto tienditas y estados
