De Contramano

¡compañeros que preocupación
Que es vivir para la gente!
Yo he nacido independiente
Y ando contra la corriente.
Sin pararme ni escuchar
Al que me viene a criticar.
Yo no se porqué es
Que yo vivo al revés,
Si me quieren, no quiero
Ni puedo querer.
Y el que sepa llevarme la contra, ya sabe
La clave y en fija me muero por él.
Si me dicen, no podés fumar,
Me dan antojos de pitar
Yo voy de contramano
Y siento frío en verano.
Alegre me ven llorando
Y canto si estoy sufriendo,
Yo sola me se entender
Y se comprender lo que estoy sintiendo.
Total si la vida es corta,
Total a nadie le importa
Si voy contra la corriente
Si soy como soy.
Nunca me ha llamado la atención
Lo de eva y la manzana,
Y porque de eva soy hermana,
Y tentarse es cosa humana
Le dijeron, "no comás",
Y ella, ¡zas, se la comió!
