lyrics

Por que nos tratan así
si solo somos personal honradao
por que no nos consideran
si solo somos motorizados
la calle es nuestro ring
de peleas y luchas
no es nuestro destino
simplemente es la necesidad.

Por que nos tratan así
si solo somos victimas de la delincuencia
y el matraqueo del policía
del patrón que nos regaña
así no tenga la razón
pues para el solo somos chusma
señores sin consideración

Por que nos tratan asi
si el trabajar en moto no es pecado
pero para mi país,
simplemente soy un Motorizado

Coro:
Bajo sol, lluvia o trafico infernal
Yo tengo que laborar
Tengo que trabajar para ganar el sustento
y llevar a casa el pan
Bajo sol, lluvia o trafico infernal
Yo tengo que laborar
Hago mensajes hago cobranzas
luego al banco a depositar

Y a los panas de mis gremios
se la quiero dedicar
(Yo tengo que laborar)
Ca con chaqueta y bolso lo esencial
(Yo tengo que laborar)
Levantate temprano
chamba tienes que buscar
(Yo tengo que laborar)
Y cuidado con la matraca
que la tienes que evitar
(Yo tengo que laborar)



English Translation:

Why do they treat us so badly
We are honest people
Why are we not regarded
Just because we’re the courrier
The streets are the “ring”
of our wrestles and struggles
It is not our destiny
We do it out of need

Why do they treat us so badly
If we are victims of crime
Of cops nagging at us
Of the boss that yells at us
Even when he is not right
Because for him we are just trash
Thoughtless people

Why do they treat us so badly
When working on a motorcycle is no sin
But in my country,
I am a common courrier

Chorus:
Under the sun, rain or hellish traffic
I have to work
