Letra del Tango Bolero

La conocí por Palermo una de esas lindas tardes.

Fue mirarla y entregarle alma, vida y corazón,

y a los seis meses justitos quiso que vieran sus padres

al hombre que era su sueño, su esperanza y su ilusión.

Yo sentí una alegría como nunca había sentido,

bendiciendo mi destino acepté la invitación.

Eran gente de abolengo, de linaje distinguido,

y al palacio de la nena fui temblando de emoción.



Mucho gusto: Juan Pardales; mucho gusto: Bengolea.

Una copa y otra copa que la madre nos sirvió,

todo iba viento en popa cuando el padre de la nena

le dice a mi noviecita: ‘Hazle oír algo al señor…’.

Ella, llena de entusiaso, presurosa fue hasta el piano,

empezó con un bolero y siguió con otro más.

Después, La última noche y yo que esperaba un tango

me alejé de su palacio para no volver jamás.



Una carta le he mandado donde le digo: ‘Querida,

si querés que sea tu novio tenés pronto que aprender

estos tangos que te envío: Catamarca, La cachila,

El arranque, Mano a mano, Adiós Bardi, El buscapié.

Y una cosa más te exijo, mi querida noviecita:

que en la noche de la boda, y no lo tomes a mal,

yo quiero que me arrulle el tango La Cumparsita,

que por algo soy porteño y nací en el arrabal.
