En Tijuana, tres noches por semana
Se trabajaba en México la nuit
¿Qui'hubo, señor? Me llamo Viridiana
Y me apellido veinticinco mil
Yo no buscaba amores mercenarios
Y ella no era la venus de Buñuel
Pero el tequila de los solitarios
Sabe mejor contigo, mademoiselle
Y dos rondas más tarde la besaba
Y tres besos después me convenció
Y en un meublé por horas que alquilaba
Ahorita les diré lo que pasó
Tantas cosas me dio que no me daban
Tantas caricias casi de verdad
Que a mí se me olvidó que trabajaba
Y ella no se acordó de trabajar
Por eso, sin faltar una semana
Cuando me ven entrar al cabaré
Los mariachis, mirando a Viridiana
Le cantan: Y volver, volver, volver
Y, aunque en mi cumpleaños dé una cena
Y no vengan mis hijos a cenar
Con ella cada noche es Nochebuena
Y nunca se termina el carnaval
Porque no hay bajo la Luna mexicana
Mejor menú para un perro andaluz
Ni manos que hagan como Viridiana
La tarta de manzana de amour fou
Con el corrido de la bella Malinche
Y el pinche gachupín
Que viva México la nuit! Que sí
(Mais oui)
