Lyrics
Español
Toda la calle Florida lo vio con sus polainas, galera y bastón... Dicen que fue, allá por su juventud, un gran Don Juan del Buenos Aires de ayer. Engalanó la puerta del Jockey Club y en el ojal siempre llevaba un clavel. Toda la calle Florida lo vio con sus polainas, galera y bastón. Apellido distinguido, gran señor en las reuniones, por las damas suspiraba y conquistaba sus corazones. Y en las tardes de Palermo en su coche se paseaba y en procura de un encuentro iba el porteño conquistador. Ah, tiempos del Petit Salón... Cuánta locura juvenil... Ah, tiempo de la sección Champán Tango del 'Armenonville'. Todo pasó como un fugaz instante lleno de emoción... Hoy sólo quedan recuerdos de tu corazón... Toda la calle Florida lo vio con sus polainas, galera y bastón.
English · machine translation
The whole Florida Street saw him with his leggings, galley and cane... They say that he was, back in his youth, a great Don Juan of yesterday's Buenos Aires. He adorned the door of the Jockey Club and in his buttonhole he always wore a carnation. The whole Florida Street saw him with his leggings, galera and cane. Distinguished surname, great gentleman in the meetings, for the ladies he sighed and conquered their hearts. And in the afternoons of Palermo in his carriage he would ride and in search of a meeting went the porteño conqueror. Ah, the times of the Petit Salon... How much youthful madness... Ah, time of the Champagne Tango section of the 'Armenonville'. It all passed like a fleeting instant full of emotion... Today there are only memories of your heart... All of Florida Street saw him with his leggings, galera and cane.

The leader is Carlos Di Sarli, 1940, with 81% of the 90 filmed dances matched to a version of this song.
1 more dance names this song but not which version, so no share counts it. “No match yet” means no filmed dance is tied to that version so far, not that nobody dances it. Dances whose music we have not identified are left out.
