The Guitarist's Cueca

Jorge Cafrune

Cueca Del Guitarrero

Ate el lápiz de puente
Con la pitilla, con la pitilla
Ate el lápiz de puente
Con la pitilla, con la pitilla
Que es guitarra de pobre
Cuerda añadida
Que es guitarra de pobre
Cuerda añadida

Hecha a lesna y cuchillos
Son las clavijas, son las clavijas
De madera y se aprietan
Con salivita
De madera y se aprietan
Con salivita

Guitarrita emprestada
Es para el caso, es para el caso
Como mujer casada
En otros brazos
Como mujer casada
En otros brazos

Por Sol y dominante
Toca y cantemos, toca y cantemos
Por Sol y dominante
Toca y cantemos, toca y cantemos
Y que somos cuyanos
Nunca olvidemos
Y que somos cuyanos
Nunca olvidemos

Cajoneale en el puente
Que uñas y dedos, que uñas y dedos
Repiquen referentes
Al taconeo
Repiquen referentes
Al taconeo

Guitarrita emprestada
Que suerte loca, que suerte loca
Como mujer casada
Que otro la toca
Como mujer casada
Que otro la toca

The Guitarist's Cueca

Tie the pencil to the bridge
With the string, with the string
Tie the pencil to the bridge
With the string, with the string
'Cause it's a poor man's guitar
With an extra string
'Cause it's a poor man's guitar
With an extra string

Made with chisels and knives
Are the pegs, are the pegs
Made of wood and tightened
With a little spit
Made of wood and tightened
With a little spit

Borrowed little guitar
It's for the occasion, it's for the occasion
Like a married woman
In another's arms
Like a married woman
In another's arms

By G and dominant
Let's play and sing, let's play and sing
By G and dominant
Let's play and sing, let's play and sing
And that we're from Cuyo
Let's never forget
And that we're from Cuyo
Let's never forget

Strum it on the bridge
That nails and fingers, that nails and fingers
Ring out in rhythm
To the heel-tapping
Ring out in rhythm
To the heel-tapping

Borrowed little guitar
What crazy luck, what crazy luck
Like a married woman
That someone else plays
Like a married woman
That someone else plays
