El Coyote
Los Tigres del Norte
The Coyote
The trap was set just right
It was only a matter of time
But the coyote caught the scent
And didn’t fall for that snare
How important is the brain
When your skin's on the line
Someone changed the signals
Lucio told Fernando
I sense there are feds around
And the commander’s messing up
If I can dodge the pines
Maybe we can tell the tale
The coyote, used to danger
Told his co-pilot
Buckle up that seatbelt tight
This load was headed to Denver
Now it’s going to San Francisco
They threw us out as bait
To move something big
I thought they had my back
But they just betrayed me
Someone’s gonna sweat in Denver
For not knowing about the commander
A mechanic and a good pilot
Knew how to move in the air
He put in a spare tank
That he never trusted to anyone
That’s how he escaped the trap
They had set up in Nogales
Don’t wear out the donkey
'Cause the load's at risk
Arrogance is the flaw
That’s brought down the greats
That’s why the coyote
Should be cooked separately
