A song that says what you can't

Most dads don't talk about their lives. They worked. They took care of you. They drove you places, fixed things, didn't complain. They'd cringe if you tried to give a speech about them. But a corrido — that's different. A corrido is the way Mexican families have always told the stories of their men. Through music, with restraint, with respect. A custom song for dad written as a corrido carries weight a generic gift never will.

If your dad crossed la frontera with nothing. If he worked two jobs to put you through school. If he carries his apellido with pride. If he's gone now but his absence is still in every family dinner — that man deserves a corrido. Not a generic AI song with his name swapped in. A real corrido, written about him.

We ask you who he is, what he did, what you remember. We turn it into a corrido using the authentic form — octosyllabic lines, ABCB rhyme, the saludo and despedida that have framed corridos for two centuries. Your choice of style: norteño, banda, tumbado, traditional. Lyrics generate in seconds; full audio within 24 hours. $49.99, one time, link is yours forever.

Lyrics

Voy a cantarles, señores

hija de pan y de fierro

lista en papelito llevó

  1. Voy a cantarles, señores
  2. de Marti, de León llegó
  3. hija de pan y de fierro
  4. lista en papelito llevó
  5. A los nueve al mercado
  6. con la lista y su ilusión
  7. regateó los centavos
  8. pa' cuidar hasta el montón
  9. A los veintidós, solita
  10. la línea también cruzaste
  11. tres años en El Paso fue
  12. y a Houston te lanzaste
  13. Veinticuatro en la misma
  14. casa en Houston, corazón
  15. nunca te moviste, Marti, no
  16. por los recuerdos, tu razón
  17. De día, hospital limpias
  18. los fines cuidas chamacos
  19. de noche en restaurante
  20. y a la comadre, caldo
  21. Con seis años me quedé yo
  22. sin apá en nuestro cantón
  23. tú jalaste doble, Amá
  24. y nunca faltó el gasto
  25. En un bufé, la rodilla
  26. se te quebró con el peso
  27. el 'disability' negó
  28. seguiste meses con hueso
  29. Operaron medio año
  30. y no hablaste del dolor
  31. con beso y con cobija
  32. nos tapabas con tu amor
  33. Dos años los ahorraste
  34. pa' mis quince en el salón
  35. con la comadre cosiendo
  36. mi vestido pa' el rincón
  37. En mi graduación, primera
  38. te quedaste hasta atrás
  39. te encargas de las cuentas
  40. dices: de ahí no me bajan
  41. Ese día nos peleamos
  42. llegaste con chocolate
  43. me dijiste: 'ay, qué Martha'
  44. mi mejor amiga, madre
  45. Ya con esta me despido
  46. Día de las Madres
  47. Dios te guarde muchos años
  48. te quiero por siempre, madre

Sample lyrics for a corrido about your dad

Here's how the lyrics for a corrido about your dad might open. We write in Mexican Spanish — the form rhymes and rhythms only work in Spanish — but the references and details (his name, his place, his story) are entirely yours.

Voy a cantarles, señores,de un padre muy trabajador,de los que cruzan fronterascon sueños y con sudor.Don [his name] firme y derecho,nunca jamás se rajó.

The dads we celebrate

For the immigrant dad

For the dad who crossed for us. Who learned a new language. Who sent money home. Tell us where he came from — the corrido tells the rest.

For the working dad

For the dad who got up at 4am. Who never complained. Who worked construction, the fields, the factory. The corrido gives him the dignity he never asked for.

For the proud dad

For the dad who carries his apellido with honor. Who raised his kids straight. Who sits on the porch like a king. For that dad.

Frequently asked questions

How does it work?
You answer a 5-minute questionnaire about your dad — where he's from, what he did, what you want the corrido to say. We generate the lyrics in Spanish (corrido form), then the music and vocals. You get an MP3 by email within 24 hours.
Can the lyrics be in English?
The traditional form of corrido is in Spanish — that's where the rhyme scheme and rhythm work. We default to Spanish but can do bilingual if you ask in the questionnaire. English-only doesn't sound right for a corrido — we'd steer you elsewhere if that's what you need.
Are the vocals real or AI?
The vocals are AI-generated, but the lyrics follow authentic corrido form (octosyllabic, ABCB). Most listeners don't notice — the lyrics are what determines whether a corrido feels real.
How long does it take?
Within 24 hours of submitting the questionnaire. If it's been more than 24 hours, email support@corridomaker.com.
How much?
$49.99 USD, one time. No subscription. If you don't love it within 3 days, full refund, no questions asked.
My dad passed — does this still work?
Yes — and many of our customers commission corridos in memoriam. The questionnaire has a section for "in memory of" framing; mention the date he passed, what he left behind, what you want the corrido to honor. The tone of the resulting corrido shifts to match — more solemn, more focused on legacy.
Can I use this commercially — for a video I monetize, etc?
The $49.99 covers personal use (gifts, family social media, private events). For paid streaming, sync, or monetized commercial use we offer a separate license — email us.
