Verdes Verdes Lyrics in English Natanael Cano , Junior H, Ovi

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Verdes Verdes by Natanael Cano from Spanish to English.
To unwind, a little cigarette in the morning
I throw on the big vest in case that we gotta fire shots
With my homies
In a convoy, the caravans look long
Green, green, the bills rain down
Nobody like me was up front
And it wasn't luck, don't come close
Because I'm still here
Light up the flight with the mind to the sky
Always to plan the game
Their turf, fame and money
Flying on a blunt
Rifles, AKs, handguns, and balls too
Culiacán already knows, we are the good guys
Two brown guys protecting
I am El Nini
Yeah!
And nothing but Corridos Tumbados, fellas
And that's how it sounds
And that's how Ovi Pa sounds
Ovi
Corridos Tumbados
The Three Towers
Bro Jona
A little babe who never tells me anything
I keep her really happy, she wants for nothing
And with the crew on a million
They already know that nothing happens
Green, green, the bills rain down
Like me, nobody has been up front
And it wasn't luck, don't come close
And here I stay today
Light up the flight with the mind to the sky
Always to plan the game
Their turf, fame and money
Flying on a blunt
Rifles, AKs, handguns, and balls too
Culiacán already knows, we are the good guys
Two brown guys protecting
I am El Nini

SONG MEANING

Verdes Verdes plunges us into the heart of Mexico’s modern corridos tumbados scene, where hip-hop swagger meets regional guitar riffs. Natanael Cano, joined by Junior H and Ovi, paints a cinematic snapshot of cartel-ruled Culiacán: sunrise cigarettes, bulletproof vests, rifle-packed convoys, and, most importantly, verdes verdes—the green bills that rain down when business booms. The narrator proudly claims the nickname “El Nini,” flaunting his frontline position, sharp strategy, and fearless crew. Every line doubles as both a boast and a warning: fortune was earned, not left to luck, so outsiders should keep their distance.

Beneath the bravado, the track reveals how respect, loyalty, and constant vigilance define this high-stakes world. The artists celebrate the material rewards—fame, territory, satisfied lovers—yet they also hint at the weight of always “planning the game” while mentally soaring on a smoke-fueled escape. Verdes Verdes is less a cautionary tale than a raw victory lap, inviting listeners to witness the adrenaline-charged lifestyle of those who live by the corrido code and count their success in stacks of green.
