Verse 1

If I'm doing well and healthy

Someone asks me if I'd return to your side

Obviously I tell them no

That I won't repeat that mistake

Chorus 1

But already drunk who knows

One of these days maybe I call you

And it's that with a few tequilas in me

I miss you here, and you know that

But already drunk who knows

I might be missing your kisses

Or: It may be that I'm missing your kisses

And that I comment a broken heart

In your last photo waiting for a return

You don't fit here in my bed

But already drunk who knows

Verse 2

I'd have to be really drunk

And you with a shitload of luck

For my heart to forget

The damage that loving you caused it

The wound just doesn't go away

Not even because I put a band-aid on it

I'd like to go look for you

But I'm not drunk right now

If I don't drink, I don't even take you into account

I don't know if you've already realized

That time that I talked to you in July

It was because I drank a Don Julio

Don Julio is a luxury premium tequila

Good and healthy I don't love you

Chorus 2

But already drunk who knows

One of these days maybe I call you

And it's that with a few tequilas in me

I miss you here, and you know that

But already drunk who knows

I might be missing your kisses

And that I comment a broken heart

In your last photo waiting for a return

You don't fit here in my bed

But already drunk who knows

And this is Grupo Frontera

pedo — drunk (slang)

Pedo is popular Mexican slang for 'drunk'. It's the key to understanding this song's title, Ya Pedo Quién Sabe, which translates to 'Already Drunk, Who Knows?'.

The lyrics describe a classic dilemma: when the singer is sober, he knows not to call his ex, but he admits that after a few drinks ('ya pedo'), he just might. Learning this word is a great step into the world of informal, everyday Spanish conversation and music.

Have you ever sworn off an ex, only to change your mind after a couple of drinks? That is exactly the situation in "Ya Pedo Quién Sabe" by Grupo Frontera and Christian Nodal. When sober, the singer is completely firm: "Si ando bueno y sano / Alguien me pregunta si volvería a tu lado / Obvio les digo que no" ("If I'm sober and healthy / Someone asks me if I'd go back to you / Obviously I tell them no"). He admits loving them caused real pain that a simple bandage cannot fix ("La herida nomás no se quita / Ni porque le puse un curita"). In plain daylight, there is no way he wants them back in his bed.

Everything falls apart the moment the tequila starts flowing. The Mexican slang word "pedo" literally means a fart, but in everyday speech across Mexico, it means drunk (or trouble, depending on context). So "ya pedo quién sabe" translates to "once I'm drunk, who knows." Alcohol wipes out his good judgment entirely. He even drops a clever pun on the calendar and top-shelf liquor, singing that calling her back in July only happened because he was drinking Don Julio tequila ("Que aquella vez que te hablé en julio / Fue porque tomé un Don Julio"). A few drinks in, he is suddenly leaving broken-heart emojis under her latest photos and dialing her number again.
