Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Judiciales a la vista claven todo y relajados.
Si preguntan yo contesto ustedes son mis empleados.
Si hayan algo no se asusten estamos apalabrados.

Al caer en el reten los agentes preguntarton.
A que se dedican compas, trabajamos de empresarios.
Tienen finta de mañosos bajanse pa′ revisarlos.
Les hallaron un papel y una bolsita manchada.
Les preguntaron que es esto contestaron de volada.
Ya con esto descubrieron que la troca hiva cargada.

Al quererlos esposar dijo el que iva manejando.
Mire señor oficial mejor vamos a arreglarnos.
Por que si hago una llamada.
Se van a quedar mirando.

Mire señor empresario se les acavo el corrido.
Quiero el nombre de la empresa a la que han pertenesido.
Si señor con mucho gusto se llama Viajes Carrillo

Para que tanto relajo porque no habian avisado.




Dejenme la contraseña y vallanse con cuidado.
Diganle al Aguila Blanca que ojala viva 100 años

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Banda Astilleros' song "El Aguila Blanca" describe a group of businessmen who are stopped at a police checkpoint. Though the police suspect the men of being involved in illegal activities, the men remain calm and confident, telling the police that they are simply businessmen. The police search the men's truck and find a piece of paper and a stained bag, which the men quickly explain away. However, the police ultimately discover that the truck is loaded with something illegal.


In an effort to avoid arrest, the driver of the truck suggests that he knows powerful people who could help him get out of trouble. He gives the police the name of his company, Viajes Carrillo, and assures them that they have nothing to worry about. The song ends with the driver telling the police to give "El Aguila Blanca" a message and wishing him a long life.


The song is a commentary on the economic and political power that some individuals have, and how they can sometimes use that power to protect themselves from the consequences of their actions. Through the lyrics, the band highlights the corruption that exists in many parts of society, particularly in the context of the drug trade and other criminal activities.
