Un callejón en Pompeya
Y un farolitoplateando el fango
Y allí un malevo que fuma
Y un organito
Moliendo un tango
Y al son de aquella milonga
Más que su vida mistonga
Meditando, aquel malevo
Recordó la canción de su dolor
Yo soy aquel que en Corrales
Los carnavales de mis amores
Hizo brillar tu belleza
Con las lindezas de tus primores
Pero tu inconstancia loca
Me arrebató de tu boca
Como pucho que se tira
Cuando yani sabor ni aroma da
Tango querido
Que ya pa' siempre pasó
Como pucho consumió
Las delicias de mi vida
Que hoy cenizas solo son
Tango querido
Que ya pa' siempre calló
¿Quién entonces me diría
Que vos te llevarías
Mi única ilusión?
