En el barrio Caferata
en un viejo conventillo,
con los pisos de ladrillo,
minga de puerta cancel,
donde van los organitos
su lamento rezongando,
está la piba esperando
que pase el muchacho aquel.
Aquel que solito
entró al conventillo,
echao a los ojos el
funyi marrón;
botín enterizo,
el cuello con brillo,
pidió una guitarra
y pa'ella cantó.
Aquel que, un domingo,
bailaron un tango;
aquel que le dijo:
"Me muero por vos";
aquel que su almita
arrastró por el fango,
aquel que a la reja
más nunca volvió.
Ventanita del cotorro
donde sólo hay flores secas,
vos también abandonada
de aquel día... se quedó.
El rocío de sus hojas,
las garúas de la ausencia,
con el dolor de un suspiro
tu tronquito destrozó.
