El Ocho Lyrics English Translation by Luis R Conriquez ft. Julián Mercado
News reports a convoy of armed people
Entered Caborca and secured that territory
They follow the orders of a man leading his race
With the path they navigate, I think they fall short
Warlike mode, the guys, camouflaged in spots
The terrain has an owner under the orders of the Chapitos
Beware of the flyby, you don’t know where it might strike
From the Sonoran desert, the one holding the keys
On the radio, they mention it
“Like the 8, that’s the code, like the 8, that’s the code”
Wherever the rooster crows when the sun rises or sets
You can’t escape danger, always carrying a short one
And even if he conquers new territories, he doesn’t neglect Sonoyta
Even if the water is troubled, he holds the frying pan by the handle
He has several friends of very high rank
And there in Altar and Caborca, his command patrols
For war and into war are their only options
Good actions distinguish someone of good character
So there’s no doubt
That the bald ones rule here, that the bald ones rule here
