Dice que mi china es fiera
Y se parece al carpincho
Que su voz es un relincho
Y su boca una tranquera
Y su boca una tranquera
Que es una prienda cualquiera
Del mismo valor que el toro
Que tiene al andar saber
Igual al de mi potranca
Que es brisaña y media manca
Yo sin embargo la quiero
Que sus ojos son candiles
Ingrata, cuasi apagaos
Y andan como desertaos
Su pareja de cuadriles
Su pareja de cuadriles
Y que lo tocante
Más espuma da el puchero
Que tiene manchao el cuero
Que es guaseta y nariguda
Vieja bajita y tan panzuda
Yo sin embargo la quiero
Es una vieja chancleta
Haragana y comadrona
Gacha siempre y pesadona
Lo mesmo que la carreta
Lo mesmo que la carreta
Que es una? Coqueta
Y su cabeza un caldero
Que es un loro barranquero
Que más sabe hacer milagros
Que tiene cara de bagre
Yo sin embargo la quiero
Dicen que por lo arrastrada
Se parece a la culebra
Y que de gusto se quiebra
Lo mesmo que marejada
Lo mesmo que marejada
Que es una china encerrada
Que es más fijona que el tero
Que suelta como el pampero
La rienda de aflojo
Que sepa que muy canejo
Yo sin embargo la quiero
