Yo soy del barrio de la ribera
Patria del tango y del bandoneón
Hijo sin grupo de un gringo viejo
Igual que el tango de rezongón
Desde muy pibe solté los cabos
Y en la milonga me entrevere
Hasta que un día quede amarrado
Entre los brazos de una mujer
Por ella perdí mi rumbo
Y al mundo me eche a rodar
Pa' olvidar aquellos ojos
Que me hicieron tanto mal
Pero es inútil, compadre
Hincharle el pecho al dolor
Cuando nos tapan el alma
Con el poncho del amor
Por eso que ando triste y errante
Buscando en todas sabor igual
Al de los besos de aquella boca
Que ya mis labios no han de besar
Yo soy del barrio de la ribera
Patria del tango y el bandoneón
Hijo sin grupo de un gringo viejo
Igual que el tango de rezongón
