Gacho gris, compadrito y diquero
Fiel testigo de un tiempo de farra
Siempre fuiste mi buen compañero
A quien nunca he podido olvidar
Requintado y echado a los ojos
Te llevaba en mis noches de taita
Y hoy la moda tan llena de antojos
Te ha traído de nuevo a tallar
Gacho gris, arrabalero
Vos triunfaste como el tango
Y escalaste desde el fango
Toda la escala social
Ayer solo el compadrito
Te llevaba requintado
Pero ahora, funyi claro
Sos chambergo nacional
Desplazado a una vida tranquila
Voy pa' viejo entregado a la suerte
Y por eso he llorado al tenerte
Gacho gris, otra vez frente a mi
Es verdad que ya estoy maturrango
Para usarte lo mismo que antaño
Sin embargo, contigo y un tango
Me parece que vuelvo a vivir!
Gacho gris, arrabalero
Vos triunfaste como el tango
