Allá va cielo y más cielo,
Cielito de la mañana...
Después de los ruiseñores,
Bien puede cantar la rana.
Cielito, cielo que sí,
El rey es hombre cualquiera,
Y morir para que él viva,
¡la puta! es una zoncera.
Cielito, cielo que sí,
Cielito de la herradura,
Para candil semejante
Mejor es dormir a oscuras.
Allá va cielo y más cielo,
Libertad, muera el tirano,
O reconocernos libres
O adiosito y sable en mano.
Cielito, cielo que sí,
Unión y ya nos entramos,
Y golpeándonos la boca
Apagando los sacamos.
Cielo de los mancarrones
¡ay! cielo de los potrillos,
Ya brincarán cuando sientan
Las espuelas y el lomillo.
Cielito, cielo que sí,
Cielito del disimulo,
De balde tiran la taba
Porque siempre han de echar culo.
Cielito, cielo que sí,
Cielito de tres por ocho,
Que se empezó a desgranar
Lo mesmo que maíz morocho.
Si perdiésemos la acción,
Ya sabemos nuestra suerte,
Y pues juramos ser libres,
O libertad o la muerte.
