El viejo rio que va
Cruzando el amanecer
Como un gran camalotal
Lleva la balsa en su loco vaiven
Rumbo a la cosecha cosechero yo seré
Y entre copos blancos mi esperanza cantaré
Con manos curtidas dejare en el algodón
Mi corazón.
La tierra del chaco quebrachera y montaraz
Prendera en mi sangre con un ronco sapucay
Y sera en el surco mi sombrero bajo el sol
Faro de luz
(Algodón que se va, que se va, que se va
Plata blanda mojada de luna y de sol
Un ranchito borracho de sueños y amor
Quiero yo) 2x
De corrientes vengo yo
Barranquera ya se ve
Y en la costa un acordeon
Gimiendo va su lento chamame
Rumbo a la cosecha cosechero yo seré
Y entre copos blancos mi esperanza cantaré
Con manos curtidas dejare en el algodón
Mi corazón
La tierra del chaco quebrachera y montaraz
Prendera en mi sangre con un ronco sapucay
Y sera en el surco mi sombrero bajo el sol
Faro de luz
