Lyrics
Tomo y obligo, mndese un trago
Que hoy necesito el recuerdo matar,
Sin un amigo, lejos del pago,
Quiero en su pecho mi pena volcar.
Beba conmigo y si se empaa
De vez en cuando mi voz al cantar,
No es que la llore por que me engaa
Yo s que un hombre no debe llorar.
Si los pastos conversaran,
Esa pampa le dira
De que modo la quera,
Con que fiebre la ador
Cuantas veces de rodillas.
Tembloroso yo me he hincado
Bajo el rbol deshojado donde un da la bes,
Y hoy al verla envilecida
A otros brazos entregada
Fue «pa"mi una pualada.
Y de celos me cegu
Y le juro todava, no consigo comprenderme
Como pude contenerme,
Y ahi no mas no la mat.
Tomo y obligo, mndese un trago
De las mujeres mejor no hay que hablar,
Todas, amigo, dan muy mal pago,
Hoy mi experiencia lo puede afirmar.
Siga un consejo, no se enamore
Y si una vuelta le toca hocicar
Fuerza canejo, sufre y no llores
Que un hombre macho no debe llorar
Si los campos conversaran… …
Lyrics translation
I take and force, mndse a drink
That today I need the memory to kill,
Without a friend, away from payment,
I want to dump my grief on his chest.
Drink with me and if you get drunk
From time to time my voice when singing,
It's not like I'm crying because I'm screwed.
I know a man shouldn't cry.
If the pastures Converse,
That pampa will tell you
How I want it,
With what fever I adore her
How many times on your knees.
Trembling I've gone down
Under the stripped rbol where one gives the bes,
And today to see her demeaned
To other arms delivered
It was " pa " me a jerk.
And jealous blinded me
And I swear to you, I can't understand myself.
How could I contain myself,
And there no more I did not kill her.
I take and force, mndse a drink
Of women better not to talk,
All of them, my friend, are very poorly paid.,
Today my experience can affirm this.
Take a tip, Don't fall in love
And if a turn is his turn to sniff
Strength dog, suffer and do not cry
That a male man should not cry
If the fields chat… …
