El Arriero

En las arenas bailan los remolinos
el sol juega en el brillo del pedregal
y prendido a la magia de los caminos
el arriero va... el arriero va...
Es bandera de niebla su poncho al viento
lo saludan las flautas del pajonal
y guapeando la senda por esos cerros,
el arriero va... el arriero va...
Las penas y las vaquitas,
se van por la misma senda;
Las penas y las vaquitas,
se van por la misma senda;
las penas son de nosotros
las vaquitas son ajenas
las penas son de nosotros
las vaquitas son ajenas.
Un degüeyo de soles muestra la tarde,
se han dormido las luces del pedregal,
y animando a la tropa,dale que dale
el arriero va, el arriero va...
Ojalá que la noche traiga recuerdos,
que haga menos pesada la soledad,
como sombra en la sombra por esos cerros,
el arriero va, el arriero va...
Las penas y las vaquitas,
se van por la misma senda;
Las penas y las vaquitas,
se van por la misma senda;
las penas son de nosotros
las vaquitas son ajenas
las penas son de nosotros
las vaquitas son ajenas.
Y prendido la magia de los caminos,
el arriero va, el arriero .... va....
