Very tough

Carlos Waiss

Bien pulenta

Estoy hecho en el ambiente de muchachos calaveras,
entre guapos y malandras me hice taura pa' tallar,
me he jugado sin dar pifia en bulines y carpetas,
me enseñaron a ser vivo muchos vivos de verdad.
No me gustan los boliches que las copas charlan mucho
y entre tragos se deschava lo que nunca se pensó.
Yo conozco tantos hombres que eran vivos y eran duchos
y en la cruz de cuatro copas se comieron un garrón.

Yo nunca fui shusheta
de pinta y fulería,
y sé lo que es jugarse
la suerte a una baraja
si tengo un metejón.
Le escapo a ese chamuyo
fulero y confidente
de aquéllos que se sienten
amigos de ocasión.
Yo soy de aquellas horas
que laten dentro 'el pecho,
de minas seguidoras,
de hombres bien derechos
tallando tras cartón.

Siempre sé tener conducta por más contra que me busquen,
aunque muchos se embalurden que soy punto pa' currar,
ando chivo con la yuta porque tengo mi rebusque
y me aguanto cualquier copo con las cartas que me dan.
No me gusta avivar giles que después se me hacen contra,
acostumbro escuchar mucho, nunca fui conversador.
Y aprendí desde purrete que el que nace calavera
no se tuerce con la mala, ni tampoco es batidor.

Very tough

I am made in the environment of skull boys,
among tough guys and scoundrels I became tough to carve,
I have played without making mistakes in hangouts and folders,
I was taught to be clever by many truly clever people.
I don't like bars where the drinks talk a lot
and between sips, things are revealed that were never thought of.
I know so many men who were clever and skilled
and after four drinks, they messed up big time.

I was never a snob
with fancy clothes and airs,
and I know what it's like
to bet on a deck of cards
if I have a hunch.
I avoid that shady
and confident talk
of those who feel
like temporary friends.
I am from those times
that beat inside the chest,
of loyal women,
of upright men
carving after cardboard.

I always know how to behave no matter how much they provoke me,
even though many get excited that I am an easy target,
I'm wary of the cops because I have my hustle
and I can handle any situation with the cards I'm dealt.
I don't like to show off to fools who then turn against me,
I usually listen a lot, I was never a big talker.
And I learned since I was a kid that someone born a scoundrel
won't bend with the bad, nor will they be a pushover.
