Los Amigos
Los Tigres del Norte Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sinceros que se miran como hermanos
Porque ellos lo han demostrado
En las fronteras les temen y siempre andan bien armados
Carlos dice: no lo niego, me gusta ser pistolero
Me gustan mucho las hembras
De Miguel siempre se ha dicho
Ese hombre es como una fiera
Miguel es hombre que viene del merito michoacan
Carlos radica en laredo, es hombre a carta cabal
Pedro, nacido en reynosa, nunca se sabe rajar
Una vez los persiguieron
Llevaban un contrabando con parque y atmas de fuego
Metidos estamos todos
Hay que seguir adelante nunca hemos tenido miedo
Ya llegando a la garita carlos
Le dice a miguel: presiento es una celada
Y es de ese chino maldito
Salte fuera del camino, nos daremos la escapada
El jefe de policías, grita a los grandes amigos
Rindanse ya traficantes
Manos arriba al salir
Que les doy 30 segundos por si es que quieren vivir
Carlos ya desesperado
Le dice a pedro y Miguel: no vamos ir a prisión
Carlos jala la escoleta
Y al activar la granada se provoca la explosión
Así termina el corrido de estos 3 grandes amigos
Que fueron muy conocidos y respetados también
Sus nombres nunca lo olviden: pedro Carlos y Miguel
The song Los Felicito Amigo by Los Tigres Del Norte is the story of three friends who are like brothers to one another. The song is a corrido, a traditional Mexican song style that tells a story. The lyrics talk about how the friends are sincere with each other and always have each other's backs. The friends are feared in the border towns because they always carry guns and are ready to use them if needed.
Carlos, one of the friends, admits that he likes being a gunman and loves women. Miguel, on the other hand, is known to be like a wild animal, and Pedro is someone who never backs down from a fight. One day, the friends are pursued by the police while smuggling guns and ammunition. Carlos senses it's a trap and warns his friends to be careful. When they are caught by the police, Carlos decides they will not go to prison and sets off a grenade, killing himself and two police officers. The song ends with the message that these three friends were well-respected and should not be forgotten.
Overall, this song portrays the courage, loyalty, and brotherhood of these three friends. It also highlights the dangerous lifestyle they lead, where they are always ready to fight for each other and for what they believe in.
