Los Cuates de Culiacán
el potro Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Es lo que quiero mirar
Hay muchos troncos muy gruesos
Raizados en Culiacan
Que ya hallaron muchos brotos
Ojala y crezcan igual.
Pónganse muy bien las pilas
No dejen caer la plaza
Si les faltan los papas
Boy a dar los apellidos
De un equipo que hay por hay.
De la talla de Zambada,
De los Diaz y los Guzmán
Los Torres, también Quintero
Los Mezas, también Beltran
Los Aviles, y los Chaidez,
Los Palmas y muchos mas.
Ellos forman sus reuniones
Algunos conviven ya
Entre ellos hacen sus fiestas
Por hay me toco mirar
Haya por Guadalajara
Y también por Culiacan.
Pónganse muy bien las pilas
Se los vuelvo a recalcar
No dejen caer la plaza
Si les faltan los papas
Voy a dar mas apellidos
Y me van a faltar mas.
Voy a recordar a otros
Los Carrilo, y los Payan,
Esparragosa y Araujo,
Los Felix, Rivas, y mas
Y algunos muy tapaditos
Que no se quieren quemar.
The lyrics of El Potro De Sinaloa's song Los Juniors De Culiacán speak of the pride that comes from being part of a family of successful individuals, and the responsibility that comes with continuing their legacy. The phrase "de tal palo es tal astilla" (like father, like son) is used to describe the idea that children often resemble their parents in terms of personality or behavior. The song talks about the city of Culiacan, which has produced many successful and influential individuals, some of whom are mentioned in the lyrics. The singer expresses hope that the younger generation, referred to as the "juniors" of Culiacán, will continue the tradition of success and growth.
The song also speaks to the importance of protecting one's reputation and maintaining power in a given area, referred to in the lyrics as "la plaza." The singer encourages the juniors to step up and take responsibility for keeping their family's legacy alive, even if their parents are no longer in the picture. The list of successful individuals mentioned in the song serves as a reminder of what is at stake and the potential for greatness that lies within the younger generation. The casual reference to private parties and gatherings adds to the idea of a tight-knit community that values family, tradition, and success.
