Con este tango que es burlon y compadrito
se ato dos alas la ambision de mi suburbio
con este tango nacio el cielo y con un grito
Salio del sordido barrial buscando el cielo
conjuro extraño de un amor hecho carencia
que abrio caminos sin mas ley que su esperanza
mesclas de rabia, de dolor, de fe, de ausencia
llorando en la inocencia de un ritmo jugueton
por tu milagro de notas agoreras
nacieron sin pensarlo las paicas y las grelas
luna en los charcos, canyengue en las caderas
y un ansia fiera en la manera de querer
al evocarte, tango querido
siento que tiembran las baldosas de un bailongo
y oigo el resongo de mi pasado
hoy que no tengo
mas que a mi madre
siento que llega en punta e' pie para besarme
cuando tu canto nace al son de un bandoneon....
