Lyrics

Yo se que no te gustó
Que yo plantara bandera
Pues lo que dice mi voz
Oye sonero, se repite donde quiera
Tu te creías que eras dueño de todo
Y me decías que el mundo anda a tu modo
Y de repente llegue sin echármelas de fiera
Y te resulto al revés por que yo plante bandera
Con humildad, con mi sencillez, con facilidad
Y el mensaje aquel: pa’lante es que es
Yo se que no te gustó
Que yo plantara bandera
Pero a lo hecho pecho
También yo tengo derecho
Pero a lo hecho pecho, también yo tengo derecho
Oye rumbero mira, tu creías que yo no la tiraba, y aquí me tienes derecho
Pero plante bandera y ahora mi voz se escucha donde quiera
También yo tengo derecho
Oye que tu cantabas tu canción cimarrón y yo estaba en el acecho
Por mas que nos tires, este es la banda y el guarachero
Que la gente esperaba, nosotros estamos hecho
Oye que unos se tiran de espalda y otros se tiran de pecho
Cuidao, cuidao, cuidao que voy pal pecho
Oye, cantándole a mi gente, que yo me siento satisfecho
Tu creías que yo no la tiraba y aquí me tienes derecho
Si me invitas poniéndoseme apodo a que lo que hago esta bien hecho
Eeeh, pero yo estaba en el acecho
Unos se tiran de espalda, mira tu te tiraste de pecho
Óyeme bien ahora, que no me trates con despecho
Saca licencia pa que te acueste en mi lecho
Me dicen que en la 42 ponen a los jorobao derechos
Tite Curet y Alex Massucci me dicen que esta bien hecho
Oye que ha de sentarme y sentirme satisfecho

Lyrics translation

I know you didn't like it.
That I would plant a flag
Well, what my voice says
Hey sonero, repeat wherever you want
You thought you owned everything.
And you told me that the world goes your way
And all of a sudden I came in without making a fool of myself.
And I turn you upside down because I plant a flag
With humility, with my simplicity, with ease
And the message that: PA'lante is that it is
I know you didn't like it.
That I would plant a flag
But to what made chest
I too have the right
But to what I have done, I too have the right
Hey rumbero look, you thought I didn't throw it, and here you have a right
But plant a flag and now my voice is heard wherever I want
I too have the right
Hey, you were singing your maroon song and I was on the prowl.
As much as you throw us, this is the band and the guarachero
That people expected, we're done
Hear that some pull on their backs and others pull on their chests
Take care, take care, take care I'm going to the chest
Hey, singing to my people, that I feel satisfied
You thought I didn't throw it away, and here I'm entitled to it.
If you invite me by calling me nickname that what I do is well done
Eeeh, but I was on the prowl
Some pull back, look you pulled chest
Listen to me now, don't treat me with contempt
Take leave to lie on my bed
I'm told that in 42 they put the jorobao rights
Tite Curet and Alex Massucci tell me it's well done
Hey, you gotta sit me down and be satisfied.
