Lyrics
Cuando estés en la vereda y te fiche un bacanazo,
vos hacete la chitrula y no te le deschavés;
que no manye que estás lista al primer tiro de lazo
y que por un par de leones bien planchados te perdés.

Cuando vengas para el centro, caminá junando el suelo,
arrastrando los fanguyos y arrimada a la pared,
como si ya no tuvieras ilusiones ni consuelo,
pues, si no, dicen los giles que te han echao a perder.

Si ves unos guantes patito, ¡rajales!;
a un par de polainas, ¡rajales también!
A esos sobretodos con catorce ojales
no les des bolilla, porque 1e perdés;
a esos bigotitos de catorce líneas
que en vez de bigote son un espinel...
¡atenti, pebeta!, seguí mi consejo:
yo soy zorro viejo y te quiero bien.

Abajate la pollera por donde nace el tobillo,dejate crecer el pelo y un buen rodete lucí,
comprate un corsé de fierro con remaches y tornillos
y dale el olivo al polvo, a la crema y al carmín.Tomá leche con vainillas o chocolate con churros,
aunque estés en el momento propiamente del vermut.
Después comprate un bufoso y, cachando al primer turro,
por amores contrariados le hacés perder la salud.
English translation
When you're on the sidewalk and a bacanazo signs you,
you play the chitrula and don't get rid of him;
don't say that you're ready at the first throw of the bow
and that for a couple of well ironed lions you get lost.

When you come to the center, walk along the ground,
dragging the fanguyos and leaning against the wall,
as if you no longer had any illusions or consolation,
because, if you don't, the giles say they've ruined you.

If you see a pair of ducky gloves, pull them off!
To a pair of gaiters, snatch them too!
To those overcoats with fourteen buttonholes
don't give them a thought, because you'll lose them;
to those little moustaches with fourteen lines
that instead of a moustache are a spinel...
pay attention, little boy, follow my advice:
I am an old fox and I love you well.

Pull your skirt down to your ankle, let your hair grow long and wear a nice bun,
buy yourself an iron corset with rivets and screws
and give the olive tree to powder, cream and lipstick, drink milk with vanilla beans or chocolate with churros,
even if you are in the vermouth moment.
Then buy yourself a bufoso and, catching the first turro,
for love's sake you'll make him lose his health.
