(chacarera)
Muy adentro 'el corazon
Donde palpita la vida,
Siento como un comezon;
Hai' ser mi prenda querida!
Cuando pase por su rancho,
Muy cerca 'e la madrugada,
Machadito con aloja,
Lei' cantar una vidala !
Anoche, antes de dormirme
Debajo e' un cielo nublado,
De pensar en tus ojitos
Vi todo el cielo estrellado.
Estribillo
Chakay manta, de ande soy,
Mi' traido esta chacarera,
Pa' bailarla alguna vez,
Pero no una vez cualquiera...!
Una moda hay en mi pago,
Moda muy entretenida,
Hacemos machar las viejas
En medio de las comidas...
Una moda hay en mi pago,
Que moda mas lisonjera,
Cuando se machan las viejas
Bailamos la noche entera...
Hay una que es la más linda
De las modas de mi pago
Quien la quiera conocer
Que viva un tiempo en santiago.
Estribillo
Chakay manta, de ande soy,
Mi' traido esta chacarera,
Pa' bailarla alguna vez,
Pero no una vez cualquiera...!
