Gran viviyo de aspamento, malandrín de meta y ponga
Atajate este ponchazo que te voy a sacudir
No es que quiera deschavarte por cantar esta milonga
Sino porque con tus briyos vos no me vas a engrupir
Che, bacán de rango mishio, te diré algo que me alegra
Relojearte entre la merza que la va de Tabarís
A vos te llaman los giles El Marqués de Bocanegra
Como a mí me baten Chorro, El Herrero o El Perdiz
Che, Bartolo
Batí si te has vuelto colo
Pa' quererte disfrazar
Bocanegra
¡Hay que ver cuál es la suegra
Que a vos te podrá aguantar!
Vos de negro
Tenés solo tu prontuario
Que ni sé cómo escondés
Che, Bartolo
Como reo, yo te pido
Que dejés el apellido
De aquel noble genovés
Si el monóculo insolente te da un aire bacanejo
Y ese empilche bien debute te barniza de marqués
No la va del mismo modo el curdela de tu viejo
Que entre gente de boliche va arrastrando su vejez
Yo no sé con qué ganzúa has abierto ese agujero
Que los reos de mi rango le llamamos Sociedá
Pa' mí que te equivocaste, La de Negros Candomberos
Es la Sociedá indicada donde podés alternar
