Lyrics
El viejo Pablo
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Él, que creía en tantas cosas,
que despertaba con el sol.
Él, que por todo sonreía,
y que aún soñaba ser mejor.
Pero los años pasaron ya,
y el viejo Pablo qué solo está.
Laralá, laralá,
laralá, laralá, laralá.
Cuando era mozo cortejaba
a las muchachas del lugar.
Pablo soltero se quedaba;
nunca perdió su libertad.
Y ahora, de viejo, no tiene hogar.
¡El pobre Pablo qué solo está!
Laralá, laralá,
laralá, laralá, laralá.
Pablo, cansado y encorvado,
sus aventuras va a contar.
Él sólo pide que le escuchen;
toda su vida fue luchar.
Pablo se muere y nadie hay con él...
Sólo su perro, que le fue fiel...
Laralá, laralá,
laralá, laralá, laralá.
