Lyrics
Minga de departamento,
mi bulín es muy sencillo,
sin confort “a la più bella”
¡mi bulín es flor y flor!
No lo tengo por el centro,
lo tengo en un conventillo
donde el hombre es respetado
como camba y gran señor.

No la voy con la gomina,
soy modesto, campechano.
No me depilo las cejas,
ni chamuyo a lo fifí.
No tendrás tapao de armiño
y te doy, en vez del piano,
el fonógrafo ‘e mi vieja,
cachá viaje... ¿Qué batís?

¡Cachá viaje!,
no seas sonsa,
que aunque soy un vagoneta
tengo de sobra carpeta
en cosas del corazón.
Y si acaso te envolviera
algún lío inesperado,
en vez de un gil diplomado
a tu lado habrá un varón.

Si yo te ofrezco casorio
no me pongas cara mala.
Conformate con lo poco
que mi amor te puede dar.
No tendrás coche de lujo
ni tendrás pilchas bacanas,
pero si tendrás marroco,
te lo puedo asegurar.

Yo no te ofrezco vitrola,
ni pisito con esteras,
ni moblaje Chippendale,
ni tampoco petit gris.
Ni funyito espamentoso
pa’ encajarte en la sesera.
¿Qué batís, che Filomena?...
Cachá viaje... ¿Qué batís?
English translation
Minga de departamento,
my bulin is very simple,
without comfort "a la più bella"
my bulin is flower and flower!
I don't have it downtown,
I have it in a tenement
where the man is respected
as a camba and a great lord.

I don't go with hair gel,
I'm modest, country.
I do not pluck my eyebrows,
I don't sham like a fifi.
You won't have an ermine cap
and I give you, instead of the piano
my old lady's phonograph,
I'll give you a trip... What do you beat?

Cachá viaje!
don't be silly,
even though I'm a waggoner
I have a folder to spare
in things of the heart.
And if you should get involved
some unexpected mess,
instead of a graduated gil
there will be a man by your side.

If I offer you marriage
don't give me a bad face.
Be content with the little
that my love can give you.
You won't have a luxury car
nor will you have cool clothes,
but you'll have a sea of money,
I can assure you.

I don't offer you vitrola,
nor a little floor with mats,
nor Chippendale furniture,
nor petit gris.
Nor spongy funyito
to fit your brains.
What do you beat, Filomena?....
Cachá trip... What do you beat?
