El Crimen De Culiacan
Adan Chalino Sanchez
The Crime of Culiacan
I will sing this corrido to two men who were killed
without having mercy, they were vilely tortured
and already dead, a car ran over them.
In the El Palmito neighborhood in the city of Culiacán
Francisco López was there, also Francisco Beltrán
they never imagined they would be killed.
Francisco López had some outstanding accounts
he had killed the one who stole his beloved
but Francisco Beltrán was innocent.
Another day they were found at dawn
their guts were out and a dog was eating them
and moments later the police arrived.
With the Sinaloan band they were buried
and two mothers cry inconsolably
for their beloved sons who are now in heaven.
With this, I bid farewell and tell you in my song
that bad company will not bring anything good
I say it through this corrido, don't forget it.
