El De La Yukon Negra
Los Titanes De Durango Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Se llama Carlos García
En la bolsa trae billetes
Que gasta de noche y día
Y en la cintura una escuadra
Y en la sangre valentía
Así dice la canción
Enamorado el viejón
Alegre y muy parrandero
Le gusta jalar la banda
En terrenos y en lo ajen
Del rancho de la espinita
Se fue pa estados unidos
No se tardo mucho tiempo
Cuando volvió a sus terrenos
Hoy lo miramos pisteando
Jalando cuernos de chivo
Gracias a dios he triunfado
Y a mi familia ayudado
Con mis padres y hermanos
Muy parejo hemos jalado
No se atoren mis carretas
Quiero seguir trabajando
Tengo recuerdos muy grandes
De mis padres tan queridos
Y también de mis hermanos
Cuando jugamos de niños
Que diosito me los cuide
Que los viejorbo en camino
Voy a echarme un perizazo
Y una cervecita helada
Que me toquen el corrido
Se acelero la plebada
Sigan tocando Titanes
Que esta noche es desvelada
