El Uruguay no es un río
Es un cielo azul que viaja
Pintor de nubes camino
Con sabor a mieles ruanas
Los amores de la costa
Son amores sin destino
Camalotes de esperanza
Que se va llevando el río
Chuá, chuá, chuá ja ja ja
No cantes más torcacita
Que llora sangre el ceibal
Morenita lavandera
Biguacita de la costa
Enróllate la pollera
Ponete a lavar la ropa
Tu madre cocina charqui
Tu padre fue río arriba
Y vos te quedaste sola
Lavando ropa en la orilla
Chuá, chuá, chuá ja ja ja
No cantes más torcacita
Que llora sangre el ceibal
Canoíta pescadora
Aguantame el temporal
Si mis brazos no se cansan
Remando te he de sacar
Gurisito pelo chuzo
Ojitos de yacaré
Barriguita chifladora
Lomito color café
Chuá, chuá, chuá ja ja ja
No cantes más torcacita
Que llora sangre el ceibal
