[Intro: Vicente Fernández]
He’s a good guy, my old man

[Verse 1: Alemán]
Since he was a kid, he was a rapper
Back in the 80s, he was from Taxco, Guerrero
He had 14 brothers and they started from scratch
They never fell, although there were days when they didn’t eat
There was no money to study and they went to work
Looking for money, the guy became a silversmith
When he was young, he met Yaneth, his true love
They fell in love as soon as they met

Yeah, yeah
They were 19 when they had a son
And looking for a better future, they went to Cabo
A firm and upright guy, he was never treacherous
And what he always said is that family comes first
He was good at boxing, they called him “El Gallo Giro”
They said that in the neighborhood he was the best at shooting himself
He earned my respect and that’s why I admire him
A drink for the ground and a kiss for the sky
With feeling, here I bring him in my thoughts
He always supported his son at all times
Sir, for you a recognition
Because there was always food on the table

[Chorus: Vicente Fernández]
My old man is a good guy
Who walks alone and waiting
My old man is a good guy
Who walks alone and waiting

[Verse 2: Gera MX]
Yeah, I’m going to tell you a story, it’s something like a corrido
Hated by some, very loved by some
He was born in Durango, he flew the nest very young
To make a living, to give weight to the surname

He was involved in something, but well, without judging us
Living is not the same as surviving, we have to accept it
He left me some advice, a photo in the mirror
Don’t ever leave me, much less any idiot
My old man, I miss you, you only know what I’m talking about
They look at me from the clouds, I just came to say hello
I turn on two to forget everything that overwhelms me
Neither this giant house nor my beautiful girlfriend
Will be able to fill this emptiness that I feel in the chest
I look for you in the stars from this luxurious roof
I keep my promise, I took advantage of the pain
What you once dreamed of, now I have done it

[Chorus: Vicente Fernández]
My old man is a good guy
Who walks alone and waiting
My old man is a good guy
Who walks alone and waiting
My old man is a good guy
Who walks alone and waiting
