Cuando llega el domingo,
Hasta la villa bajando voy
Y se queda mi rancho,
Como diciendo:- "qué sólo estoy".
Bajo de un algarrobo
Esta zambita siento cantar
Y el rasguido parece
Que me dijera: -"vení, bailá".
Zambita de los pobres,
Flor de los valles, luz de amistad:
Alajito es tu canto,
En los domingos del tucumán.
Cariñito del cerro,
Mi criolla buena, ¿dónde andará?.
Hoy te canto la zamba
De tus domingos, palomitay.
Empochada de niebla,
Fuiste camino dela ciudad.
Mi zambita te espera,
Criollita linda: -"vení, bailá".
