Chiche, Moro, Zaino!
Vamos, pingo, por favor
Que pa subir el repecho
No falta más que un tirón!
Zaino, Chiche, Moro
La barranca ya paso
Y por verla tengo apuro
De llegar al corralón!
Y castigando muy suavemente
Sobre las ancas del cadenero
Todas las tardes pasa el carrero
Peón de la tropa El Picaflor
Va de compadre masticando un pucho
Y un clavelito del color del ceibo
Lleva en la cinta de su chambergo
Como regalo de un corazón
Moro, Chiche, Zaino!
Y al llegar al corralón
Pega un chiflido de alerta
Y abre la china el portón
Chiche, Moro, Zaino!
Ya la tarde se apago
Pero en los ojazos de ella
Ha vuelto a salir el Sol
Desata alegre la caballada
Y tras la cena corta y sencilla
Pulsa la viola y un tango ensilla
Con el recuerdo de su canción
Chiche, Moro, Zaino
La barranca se acabo
Pero ya no tengo apuro
De llegar al corralón!
