Lyrics
¿Por qué me das dique, señora de grupo,
que nunca supiste lo que es un querer?...
En los arrabales se canta la historia
del vicio enfermizo que diste a vender.

¿Por qué me das dique? No pierdas el tiempo
si sé que andás cola, muy cola por mí,
si en más de una vuelta tendrás que acordarte
del hombre que supo jugarse por ti...

Metele a los mangos, perdé los sentidos,
en farras, en tangos y en loco burdel...
viviste engrupida de falsa grandeza...
tapás tu pobreza con vano oropel...

¡Metele a la vida! sacale partido,
cambiando de nido, de pilcha y gavión...
Total a tu pinta, ya poco le falta
pa’ ser de las tantas que van al montón...

¿Por qué me das dique, al pasar mostrando
fuleros bacanes que tallan de a cien?...
Tal vez has pensado que a mí me dio bronca,
saber que has vendido tu cuerpo otra vez...

¿Por qué me das dique, si solo mis besos,
será lo más puro que habrá en tu vivir?...
Y cuando la biaba sientas de los años,
señora de grupo, pensarás en mí...
English translation
Why do you give me dyke, group lady?
that you never knew what it is to love?...
In the suburbs they sing the story
of the sickly vice that you gave to sell.

Why do you give me a dam? Don't waste your time
if I know you're tailing, very tailed for me,
if in more than one turn you'll have to remember
of the man who knew how to play for you...

Put the mangoes in your hands, lose your senses,
in parties, in tangos and in crazy brothel...
you lived in a false grandeur...
you cover your poverty with vain tinsel...

You cover up your poverty with vain tinsel..,
change your nest, your pilcha and gavion...
Your appearance is not far from being one of the many
to be one of the many who go to the pile...

Why do you give me dyke, when passing by showing
you are so cool and cool that you are a hundred times bigger?...
Maybe you've thought that it made me angry..,
to know that you have sold your body again...

Why do you give me dike, if only my kisses,
will be the purest thing in your life?...
And when you will feel the years' biaba,
lady of the group, you'll think of me...
