Lyrics of Somos Mas Americanos - Los Tigres Del Norte

Somos Mas Americanos (original)

Ya me gritaron mil veces que me regrese a mi tierra,
Porque aquí no quepo yo Quiero recordarle al gringo: Yo no cruce la frontera,
La frontera me cruzo.
América nació libre, el hombre la dividió.
Ellos pintaron la raya, para
Que yo la brincara y me llaman invasor es un error bien marcado
Nos quitaron ocho estados quien es aquí el invasor.
Soy extranjero en Mi tierra, y no vengo a darles guerra, soy hombre trabajador.
Y si no miente la historia, aquí se asentó en la gloria la poderosa nación
Hombres guerreros valientes, indios de dos continentes, mezclados
Con español.
Y si a los siglos nos vamos: somos mas americanos,
Somos mas americanos que el hijo del anglo-sajon.
Nos compraron sin dinero las aguas del Rio bravo.
Y nos quitaron a Texas, Nuevo México, Arizona y Colorado.
También voló California y Nevada con Utah no se llenaron, el estado de Wyoming, tambien
Nos lo arrebataron yo soy la sangre del indio Soy latino soy mestizo
Somos de todos colores Y de todos los oficios Y si contamos los siglos
Aunque le duela al vecino Somos mas americanos Que todititos los
Gringos.

(translation)

They already yelled at me a thousand times to go back to my land,
Because I don't fit here I want to remind the gringo: I didn't cross the border,
The border I crossed.
America was born free, man divided it.
They painted the line, to
That I jumped over it and they call me an invader is a well-marked mistake
Eight states were taken from us and who is the invader here.
I am a foreigner in my land, and I am not here to give you war, I am a working man.
And if history doesn't lie, here the mighty nation settled in glory
Brave warrior men, Indians from two continents, mixed
With Spanish.
And if we go to the centuries: we are more American,
We are more American than the son of the Anglo-Saxon.
They bought the waters of the Rio Bravo from us without money.
And they took Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and Colorado from us.
He also flew California and Nevada with Utah not filled, the state of Wyoming, too
They took it from us I am the blood of the Indian I am Latino I am mestizo
We are of all colors And of all trades And if we count the centuries
Even if it hurts the neighbor, we are more American than all of them
Gringos.
