Lyrics
Español · Underlined words are lunfardo: tap one for its meaning.
Con un pucho prepotente acariciando sus labios, el chambergo levantado, muy porteño el caminar; la mirada sobradora, negra y revuelta melena, mozo guapo del suburbio con su pinta sin igual. Campeón entre las pebetas por su verbo tan florido, terror entre los malevos por su puñal cimbreador; varón de los empedrados, conocido en los balcones derecho sin vuelta de hoja con alma de . Cuando la noche rodea las callecitas del barrio cruza la estampa del guapo, como un rey del arrabal; pronto una sombra se acera, hay un temblor en los labios y un beso vibra en el alma del de aquel lugar.
English · machine translation
With an overbearing fag caressing his lips, his chamfer lifted, very porteño in his walk; the sober look, black and disheveled hair, handsome suburban boy with his peerless look. Champion among the pebetas for his flowery words, terror among the malevos for his cresting dagger; man of the cobblestones, known on the balconies straight without turning a leaf with the soul of a payador. When the night surrounds the little streets of the neighborhood crosses the stamp of the handsome, like a king of the suburb; soon a shadow is on the sidewalk, there's a tremor on the lips and a kiss vibrates in the soul of the taita of that place.
