Pa'l viejo oeste, you know
For the old west, you know
Come on, man
Come on, man
Que Dios te multiplique lo que me deseas
May God multiply what you wish for me
Yo tengo la salud para enfrentar la mala marea
I have the health to face the bad tide
Donde tengo los pies mucho me quieren ver la cabeza
Where I have my feet, many want to see my head
En esta selva de cemento y fiera por naturaleza
In this concrete jungle, wild by nature
Pero al gran caballo grandes espuelas
But to a great horse, great spurs
No le tengo miedo a los grandes problemas
I'm not afraid of big problems
Pero por dinero si honradamente me lo gano yo prefiero
But for money, if I earn it honestly, I prefer
Ser dueño de un peso que ser esclavo de dos
To own one peso than be a slave to two
Es que se venden, entienden
They sell themselves, they understand
Que hasta los ojos marrones cuando los ven cambian a verde
That even brown eyes change to green when they see them
Favor con favor se paga
Favor with favor is repaid
En estos tiempos que vivimos ni el agua sale de gratis
In these times we live in, even water isn't free
Dar pa recibir no es dar sino pedir
Giving to receive is not giving, it's asking
Buscando tu beneficio podrías encontrar el fin
Seeking your benefit, you could find the end
Estaré pidiendo mucho con un poco de lealtad
I may be asking for a lot with a little loyalty
No me hable de confianza a caso se olvidaron que
Don't talk to me about trust, did they forget that

Con dinero, sin dinero siempre yo hago lo que quiero

Vivo por mi propia ley, sin corona soy un rey
I live by my own law, without a crown, I'm a king
Con el pan necesario que hicieron, yo doy gratitud
With the necessary bread they made, I give gratitude
De que me pare ser un millonario y no tener salud
That I seem to be a millionaire and not have health
Ajá, de qué te vale trabajar como un animal
Ah, what's the point of working like an animal
Y cuando te levantes en la sala de un hospital
And when you wake up in a hospital room
De qué te vale ser cruel, dime
What's the point of being cruel, tell me
Si tú eres el mismo diablo, yo seré tu San Miguel
If you're the devil himself, I'll be your Saint Michael
Cuántos habladores no sé qué cuando su boca abren
So many talkers, I don't know what, when they open their mouths
Con la lengua nadarán en un charco de sangre
They'll swim with their tongues in a pool of blood
No pongas en tela de juicio la hombría de nadie
Don't question anyone's manhood
Porque ¿a quien le gusta quedar como un cobarde?
Because who likes to be seen as a coward?
Pero si quieren la victoria los ignorara
But if they want victory, I'll ignore them
Perdiendo a veces en la vida uno gana más
Sometimes in life, losing means gaining more
Uno a uno ellos caerán y después te llamarán
One by one, they will fall and then they'll call you
Tus sabios perdonaran desconfiando al igual porque
Your wise ones will forgive, still doubting because

Bien aventurado el que aborrece la envidia pues va a tener

Sembrando el odio en mi alma no encontraré

Por eso es que a mis enemigos yo pido deseándoles
That's why to my enemies, I wish for them
No te afanes en matarme, mi hermano, deséame
Don't rush to kill me, my brother, wish me well
Nazareno, te doy gracias porque tú me dejas tener
Nazarene, I thank you because
El tesoro más preciado es caminar siempre lleno de
The most precious treasure is to always walk full of
Las piedras en mi camino se alegrarán si fuera perder
The stones in my path will be glad if I were to lose
