Lyrics
Yo no tango tungo tengo,
yo me ca ca cachen diez empieza el lio;
es la luenga lunga lengua
que se hamaca, que se araca atranca digo.
Yo jamón, jamás la pata
nunca mato, nunca meto qu'embromar;
y pa' calma, colmo peso
paso el día sin hablar.

Yo lluvia, llave llevo treinta abriles sobre mí.
Soy pobre y muy enredo, pero honrado de verdad;
soy toro, no, soy tero, soy soltero y no soy gil,
y pronto vento y piba he de casar.
Por norma parlo poco porque peco por hablar;
la viaje, vieja dice que su hijita no es pa' mí,
que nato, nata, nota mi defecto mucho más
y al ñudo es forcejear nació pa' mí.

Tengo mecha, mucha cancha
y aún sin pleto, plato, plata voy en fija
si al casorio se me oponen.
Yo me escupo, yo me escapo con la chiva
con la chica digo y vale,
que si el vento que si el vento es pa' mi mal
de mi pucho, pecho sale
el amor que he de brindar.
English translation
I don't have tango tungo,
yo me ca ca ca cachen ten empieza el lio;
it's the long long long tongue
that hammocks, that scratches I say.
Yo jamón, jamás la pata
I never kill, I never get in the way;
and for calmness, I'm full of weight
I spend the day without speaking.

I rain, key I have thirty years on me.
I am poor and very messy, but honest indeed;
I am bull, no, I am tero, I am single and I am not gil,
and soon vento and piba I have to marry.
As a rule I speak little because I sin for speaking;
the trip, old woman says that her little daughter is not for me,
that nato, nata, she notices my defect much more
and to the ñudo is to struggle was born for me.

I have a wick, a lot of cancha
and even without a suit, a plate, money I'm going in fixed
if they oppose me to the marriage.
I spit on myself, I run away with the chiva
with the girl I say and it's all right,
that if the wind that if the wind is for my evil
from my pucho, chest comes out
the love that I have to toast.
