Tañe la campana vistiendo sus faldones
Murmurando oraciones, flota pasillo abajo
De la alcoba al sagrario su camino diario
Misa de 7 rosario de 9
Don Roque, piedra de toque
De aquella iglesia española
Vieja gloria del cejo añejo
Que ha escrito páginas de historia
En sus 90 años de cura provinciano
Libró contra Satán noventa mil batallas
Y salvó del infierno a un puñado de almas
Con sus rezos y penitencias largas
Don Roque, piedra de toque
De aquella iglesia española
Vieja gloria del cejo añejo
Que ha escrito páginas de historia
Fue buen catador del vino de su tierra
Jugador del mus y el dominó en la taberna
Y al calor del casino charla con sus amigos
Sobre la guerra y los tiempos perdidos
Don Roque, piedra de toque
De aquella iglesia española
Vieja gloria del cejo añejo
Que ha escrito páginas de historia
Se le apagan las luces de bendecir cruces
Y le sacan con los pies p'adelante
A este cura caballero, a este santo arrepentido
Que bajo el manto de la virgen se ha dormido
Don Roque, piedra de toque
De aquella iglesia española
Vieja gloria del cejo añejo
Que ha escrito páginas de historia
