Lyrics
Español · Underlined words are lunfardo: tap one for its meaning.
Me gusta lo desparejo y no voy por la 'vedera'. Uso funghi a lo 'Massera', calzo bota militar. La quise porque la quise y por eso ando penando, se me fue ya ni sé cuándo, ni se cuándo volverá. Me la nombran las guitarras cuando dicen su canción. Las callecitas del barrio y el filo de mi . Me la nombran las estrellas y el viento del arrabal. No sé pa' qué me la nombran si no la puedo olvidar. Soy desconfiao en amores, y soy confiao en el juego. Donde me invitan me quedo y donde sobro también. Soy del partido de todos y con todos me la entiendo, pero váyanlo sabiendo ¡soy hombre de Leandro Alem! No me gusta el empedrao ni me doy con lo moderno. Descanso cuando ando enfermo y después que me he sanao. La quiero porque la quiero y por eso la perdono. No hay nada peor que un encono para vivir amargao.

I like the uneven and I don't go for the 'vedera'. I wear funghi a la 'Massera', I wear military boots. I wanted it because I wanted it and that's why I'm in pain, she's gone and I don't even know when, I don't even know when she'll be back. The guitars call her name to me when they sing her song. The little streets of the neighborhood and the edge of my facon. It is named for me by the stars and the wind of the suburbs. I don't know why they name her to me if I can't forget her. I am distrustful in love, and I am confident in the game. Where I'm invited I stay and where I'm left over too. I belong to everyone's party and I get along with everyone, but you should know that I am a man from Leandro Alem! I don't like the cobblestone and I don't like modern things. I rest when I'm sick and after I've healed. I love her because I love her and that's why I forgive her. There is nothing worse than a bitterness to live bitterly.
