Fama, mala fama
La que me va persiguiendo
Fama, mala fama
Zamuro en la gran ciudad
Fama mala fama
La que me va maldiciendo
Fama, mala fama
Dime tu porque sera?
Yo soy un hombre sincero
de donde crece la Juana
Boca de vieja contando
de todo y lo que no sabe
Fama, mala fama
La que me va precediendo
Fama, mala fama
Zamuro en la gran ciudad
(Como buitre por la gran ciudad arrastratela)
Me dicen el desagradecido
Esa no es la verdad
Me dicen de todo
Me dicen de na
Nunca por delante
Siempre por detras
Asi mejor
Fama, mala fama
La que me va maldiciendo
Fama, mala fama
Zamuro en la gran ciudad
Fama, mala fama
la que me va precediendo
Fama, mala fama
Por algo sera
Pero saoko yo siguo palante
se que mi dia llegara
Boca de vieja inventando
lo que se ira comentando
todo lo va fabulando
no sabe mas que decir
me dicen el de la mala vida
perro verde maleducao
me dicen de todo me dicen de na
nunca por delante
siempre por detras
Fama, mala fama
La que me va maldiciendo
Fama mala fama
Dime tu porque sera?
Por algo sera
