Lyrics
Español · Underlined words are lunfardo: tap one for its meaning.
Nació en un barrio con malvón y luna por donde el hambre suele hacer gambetas y desde fue poniendo el hombro y anchó a trabajo su sonrisa buena. La sal del tiempo le oxidó la cara cuando una mina lo dejó en chancleta y entonces solo, para siempre solo, largó el y se metió en la huella. Malevo, te olvidaste en los boliches los anhelos de tu vieja. Malevo, se agrandaron tus hazañas con las copas de ginebra. Por ella, tan sólo por ella, dejaste una huella de amargo rencor. Malevo, ¡qué triste! jugaste y perdiste tan sólo por ella que nunca volvió. Tambor de tacos redoblando calles para que se entren las muchachas buenas y allí el silencio que mastica el pucho dejando siempre la mirada a cuenta. Dicen que dicen que una noche zurda con el cuchillo deshojó la espera y entonces solo, como flor de orilla, largó el cansancio y se mató por ella.

He was born in a neighborhood with mallow and moon where hunger usually wanders and since he was a child he put his shoulder to work and widened his good smile to work. The salt of time oxidized his face when a girl left him in his flip-flops and then alone, forever alone, he left his job and got into the track. Malevo, you forgot in the nightclubs the yearnings of your old lady. Malevo, your exploits were enlarged with the glasses of gin. For her, just for her, you left a trace of bitter resentment. Malevo, how sad! you played and lost just for her who never came back. Drum of tacos redoubling the streets for the good girls to enter and there the silence that chews on the cigarette always leaving the look on account. They say that they say that one night left-handed with the knife he stripped the wait and then alone, like a flower on the shore, he released his tiredness and killed himself for her.
