En la larga siembra de mis años
medio indio pa' l querer,
siempre fui esquivando los zarpazos del amor,
pero en mi camino te cruzaste
y esa tarde, pa' dolor,
con tus ojos criollos me chusiaste.
Y al yugo del cariño
me fui de yeno,
chasquiándome por güeno,
confiao y noble,
sintiéndome más pobre
que las arañas
dispués que por tus mañas
caí bajo tu pial...
China cruel, ¿a qué has venido?
¿Qué buscás en este rancho?
Si pa' mí fuiste al olvido
y vive ya más ancho
mi gaucho corazón
y esa flor que mi cuchillo
te marcó bien merecida,
la yevarás, luciendo en el carriyo
pa' que nunca en la vida
olvidés tu traición.
En el viejo pértigo de mi alma
no te vengás a enredar.
Tenés contramarca. Sos ajena a este corral.
Con que andá apurándote las tabas
pa' tu bien o pa' tu mal
y perdete en el potrero donde estabas.
Con un botón pa' muestra
tengo bastante
y soy de mucho aguante
pa' caer de nuevo.
De juro, te lo ruego,
que al lao del tigre
es fácil que peligren
las zorras como vos.
