He is best known for his 1975 hits "Before the Next Teardrop Falls" and the subsequent remake of his own "Wasted Days and Wasted Nights".
In 1959, Fender recorded the blues ballad "Wasted Days and Wasted Nights." The song became popular in 1959, but he was beset by legal troubles after he and a band member were arrested for possession of marijuana. After a two years in Louisiana's Angola prison farm, he was released through the intercession of Gov. Jimmie Davis, also a songwriter and musician. Davis requested that Fender stay away from music while on probation as a condition of his release. By the end of the 1960s, Fender was back in Texas working as a mechanic, and attending a local junior college, while only playing music on the weekends.
Number One Pop and Country
In 1974, Fender recorded "Before The Next Teardrop Falls." The single was selected for national distribution, and became a number one hit on the Billboard Country and Pop charts. His next four singles, including a remake of "Wasted Days", all hit the number one spot on the Billboard Country charts. During the next few years, Fender had several major country hits, including the No. 1 hits "Secret Love" (1975) and "You'll Lose a Good Thing" (1976).
Texas Tornados
In the 1990s, Fender teamed up with fellow Tex-Mex musicians Doug Sahm, Flaco Jimenez and Augie Myers to form the Tex-Mex supergroup the Texas Tornados, whose work was widely acclaimed. Following the death of Sahm, the production of the Tornadoes slowed.
Los Super Seven
Freddy Fender continued to still be on top with a groundbreaking collaboration with several musical legends to produce another supergroup, Los Super Seven which consisted of David Hidalgo (vocals, guitar, drums, bass, percussion, requinto, hidalguera); Rick Trevino, Joe Ely (vocals, guitar); Flaco Jimenez (vocals, accordion); Cesar Rosas (vocals, six-string bass, guitar, guitarron, jarana); Freddy Fender (vocals, acoustic bass); Ruben Ramos (vocals). This Super Seven effort won a Grammy in 1999.
On February 4, 1999, Freddy's star was installed on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
In 2004, the Texas Folklife Resources produced a widely acclaimed sell-out show at the Paramount in Austin, Texas " Fifty Years of Freddy Fender", where Freddy was honored and then performed to a packed house. Also in 2004, Freddy's hometown of San Benito Texas honored Freddy with his likeness emblazoned on their new watertower with "Hometown of Freddy Fender". Freddy would later say that this honor meant more to him than any other accolade he had ever won.
Freddy Fender's Masterpiece...
La Musica De Baldemar Huerta
Freddy delves deeply into the music of his forefathers: the boleros and rancheras that would have played in the ghettos of his native San Benito, Texas, and that he sang as a youth in border-town cantinas. Especially gorgeous are "Adios Muchachos," a melancholy meditation on final farewells, and the delicate opener, "Rayito de Luna." El Be Bop Kid isn't just back; he sounds reborn. Freddy won his last Grammy for this album.
Freddy Fender underwent a kidney transplant in 2002 donated by his daughter and a transplant of the liver in 2004. Nonetheless, his condition continued to worsen. He was suffering from an "incurable cancer" in which he had tumors on his lungs. On December 31, 2005, Fender performed his last concert and resumed chemotherapy.
Fender has Passed on...
Rest in Peace, Vaya Con Dios
Freddy Fender passed away on Saturday, October 14, 2006, after a long battle with lung cancer. He is buried in his Hometown of San Benito, Texas.
Plans are underway for a Freddy Fender Museum to be located in his beloved hometown, San Benito, Texas. Check back at: www.freddyfendermuseum.org or

Hey!
No vayas presumiendo por ahi
Diciendo que no puede estar sin ti
Tu que sabes de mi.
Hey!
Ya se que a ti te gusta presumir
Decir a los amigos que sin ti
Ya no puedo vivir.
Hey!
No creas que te haces un favor
Cuando hablas a la gente de mi amor
Y te burlas de mi.
Hey!
Que hay veces que es mejor querer asi
Que ser querido y no poder sentir
Lo que siento por ti.
Ya ves
Tu nunca me has querido ya lo ves
Que nunca he sido tuyo ya lo se
Fue solo por orgullo ese querer
Ya ves
De que te vale ahora presumir
Ahora que no estoy ya junto a ti
Que les diras de mi.
Hey!
Recuerdo que ganabas siempre tu
Que hacias de ese triunfo una virtud
Yo era sombra y tu luz.
Hey!
No se si tu tambien recordaras
Que siempre que intentaba hacer la paz
Yo era un rio en tu mar.
Ya ves
Tu nunca me has querido ya lo ves
Que nunca he sido tuyo ya lo se
Fue solo por orgullo ese querer
Ya ves
De que te vale ahora presumir
Ahora que no estoy ya junto a ti
Que les diras de mi.
Hey!
Ahora que ya todo termino
Que como siempre soy el perdedor
Cuando pienses en mi.
Hey!
No creas que te guardo algun rencor
Es siempre mas feliz quien mas amo
Y ese siempre fui yo.
Ya ves
De que te vale ahora presumir
Ahora que no estoy ya junto a ti
Que les diras de mi

Lyrics for Hey
Hey!
It's wonderful to see you once again
To see your smile and hear you call my name
There is so much to say.Hey!
It isn't accidental that we met
Your love is something that I can't forget
So I wander your way.Hey!
If one of us won't try to dry the tears
Tomorrow is the world of yesteryears
Let us live for today.Hey!
Although we played a game of love and lost
I wouldn't change a single dream because
If you loose you must pay.

Boy, he sung his heart out on this. Just beautiful. Love it. Ty.

Guadalupe Van Huss
I love this song. I wish it was written in all languages. Because many have loved and been hurt by a selfish person at some point. RIP Freddy Fender. Love your Bi-lingual music.

The best of Freddy Fender
Nancy Stephens
R.I.P. Mr. Freddy Fender. You are missed. Your music will always be loved.
C Hoskins
We had his album when we were kids and loved his music! Thanks for posting!

I had the fortune to hear him singing this song live....Just beautiful! Love Julio Iglesias but this version tops him.
Arlen Smithe
There is no such thing as an insult to any singer.Just please enjoy each singers version without the insults added. It so happens that I prefer Freddys version better, but that is not to say that Julios version isn't good , it is just different.
Arlen Smithe
All Freddys fans miss him so much as he rejoices in heaven with all the heavenly angels and all his friends that have gone as well.RIP, Freddy we will always love and remember you.
