Se ha formao' un casamiento
Todo cubierto de negro
Negros novios y padrinos
Negros cuñados y suegros
Y el cura que lo casó
Era de los mismos negros
Cuando empezaron la fiesta
Pusieron un mantel negro
Luego llegaron al postre
Se servieron higos secos
Y se fueron a acostar
Debajo de un cielo negro
Y allí están las dos cabezas
De la negra con el negro
Y amanecieron con frío
Tuvieron que prender fuego
Carbón trajo la negrita
Carbón que también és negro
Algo le duele a la negra
Vino el médico del pueblo
Recetó emplasto de barro
Pero del barro más negro
Que le dieran a la negra
Zumo de maqui del cerro
Ya se murió la negrita
Que pena pa'l pobre negro
La puso dentro' un cajón
Cajón pintao' de negro
No prendieron ni una vela
Ay! Que velorio tan negro
