Lyrics
Español · Underlined words are lunfardo: tap one for its meaning.
Ya me estoy poniendo mal de verte así con las pilchas tan de bute y ese que un de mucho te compró para tenerte a su lado. Si supiera que mañana te fugás para la vieja querencia, aquel donde los viejos recuerdos y alegrías que vivistes te hicieron tan feliz. Recuerdo que eras más linda que una guinda y un pelpa de cien, y venías paseando tarde a tarde con una piel de zorro y un encantador vaivén... Y la barra de muchachitos te acechaba por doquier... Te batían muchas cosas que te dije yo también. Y hoy que el tiempo aquel ya se ha fugado y sin grupo te amaré, porque manyo como te has portado y conmigo nunca empleastes un chiqué. Es por eso que te he respondido en todas las rachas de la vida… Mi encantito, mi querida, soy de línea, soy de línea yo también.

I'm already getting sick to see you like this with the pilchas so bute and that little berretín that a very vento guy bought for you to have you by his side. If I knew that tomorrow you'd run away for the old querencia, that bulín where the old memories and joys that you lived made you so happy. I remember you were prettier than a cherry and a hundred times more beautiful than a cherry, and you came strolling around evening after evening with a fox fur and a charming sway... And the bar of little boys stalked you everywhere... They beat you with many things that I told you too. And today that time has already gone away and without a group I will love you because manyo as you have behaved and with me you have never used a child. That's why I have answered you in all the spells of life... My darling, my dearest girl, I'm a line, I'm a line too.
