Dandy

Carlos Gardel

Dandy

Dandy
Ahora te llaman
Los que no te conocieron
Cuando entonces, eras terran
Porque pasas por niño bien
Y ahora te crees que sos un gran bacán
Más yo sé dandy
Que sos un seco y en el barrio
Se comentan fulerias para tu mal
Cuando sepan que solo sos confidente
Tus amigos del café te espiantarán
Has nacido en una cuna
De malevos calaveras, de vivillos y otras yerbas
Sin embargo quien diría
Que en el circo de la vida siempre fuiste un gran chambón
Entre la gente del hampa
No has tenido performance
Porque baten los pipiolos
Que se ha corrido la bolilla
Y han junao que sos un gran batidor

Dandy
En vez de darte
Tanto corte pensá un poco
En tu viejita y en su dolor
Tu pobre hermana en el taller
Su vida entrega con entero amor
Y por las noches
Su almita enferma
Con la de su madrecita en una sola
Sufriendo están
Cuando un día llegue a nevar tu cabeza
A tu hermana y a tu vieja lloraras

Dandy

Dandy
Now they call you
Those who didn't know you
When back then, you were just a regular guy
Because you pass as a good kid
And now you think you're a big shot
But I know, dandy
That you're a nobody and in the neighborhood
They talk bad about you
When they find out you're just a snitch
Your coffee shop friends will ditch you
You were born into
A world of crooks, scoundrels, and tricksters
Yet who would have thought
That in the circus of life, you were always a big loser
Among the criminal crowd
You haven't made a mark
Because the young ones are saying
That the word is out
And they've figured out you're just a big talker

Dandy
Instead of showing off so much
Think a little
About your old lady and her pain
Your poor sister in the workshop
Gives her life with complete love
And at night
Her sick soul
Merges with her mother's
Both suffering
When one day your head turns gray
You'll cry for your sister and your old lady
