La noche que ande Argamonte
Tiene que ser noche negra
Por si lo vienen siguiendo
Y le brillan las espuelas
Argamonte por el monte
Pasa despacio a caballo
Los lazos de su memoria
Al aire van cuatrereando
El gaucho que anda escapando
No desensille
No vaya que, andando el vino
Me lo acuchillen
Cuando Argamonte se acuerda
Que anduvo por esos Chacos
La Luna le pone encima
La sombra del contrabando
Y si canta una baguala
A orillas del Pilcomayo
El agua se lleva un toro
Cuando lo están despeñando
