El Ayudante - Live At Teatro Del Pueblo Hermosillo, Sonora/2010

Un tiempo fui campesino
Y desde muy niño
Me enseñe a sembrar
Pero todo era tristeza
Vivia en la pobresa
Tube que cambiar

Me converti en traficante
Primero ayudante
De un hombre famoso
Pero cambiaron las cosas
La vida es curiosa
Hoy soy poderoso

Mucho anduve tranbajando
Aya por durango
Y por zacatecas
Por mucho otros lugares
Aya por nogales
Tambien agua prieta

Esa carcel de durango
Hace algunos años
Fui su pricionero
Pero no pude aguantarme
Tuve que fugarme
Con mis compañeros

Me gusta tener amigos
Que sean decididos
Y que me sean fieles
Y cuando estoy en mi rancho
Canteme el halcon
Para estar alegres

Cantando ya me despido
Del rancho querido
Que me vio nacer
Ese rancho de la palma
Tengo tantas ganas
De volverlo a ver

The Assistant - Live At Teatro Del Pueblo Hermosillo, Sonora/2010

Once I was a farmer
And since I was a kid
You taught me to plant
But it was all sadness
I lived in poverty
I had to change

I became a drug trafficker
First an assistant
Of a famous man
But things changed
Life is funny
Today I am powerful

I went and worked a lot
Over there by Durango
And by Zacatecas
By many more places
Over there by Nogales
Agua Prieta too

That prison in Durango
A few years ago
I was its prisoner
But I couldn't take it anymore
I had to escape
With my fellow prisoners

I like to have friends
To be willing
And to be true to me
And when I am in my ranch
Sing me the Falcon
So that we can all be happy

Singing now I bid you farewell
From the beloved ranch
That I was born in
That ranch in the palm trees
I have such big desire
To see it again
