Esta noche me emborracho

Sola, fané, descangayada, la vi esta madrugadasalir de un cabaret;flaca, dos cuartos de cogotey una percha en el escote bajo la nuez;chueca, vestida de pebetateñida y coqueteando su desnudez,parecía un gallo desplumaomostrando al compadrear el cuero picoteaoyo que sé cuando no aguanto másal verla así rajé, pa` no llorar.

Y pensar que hace diez años fue mi locuraque llegué hasta la traición por su hermosuraque esto que hoy es un cascajofue la dulce metedura donde yo perdí el honor;que chiflao por su bellezale quité el pan a la viejame hice ruin y pechador,que quedé si un amigo, que viví de mala feque me tuvo de rodillas, sin moral,hecho un mendigo cuando se fue.

Nunca soñé que la vería en un resquiesca in pachetan cruel como el de hoy;mire si no es pa´ suicidarse,que por ese cachivache sea lo que soy.Ffiera venganza la del tiempoque le hace ver de cerca lo que uno amó;este encuentro me ha hecho tanto malque si lo pienso más, termino envenenao,esta noche me emborracho bienme mamo bien mamao pa` no pensar.

Tonight I'll get drunk

Alone, ruined, sick, I saw her this morningcoming out of a cabaret;skinny, two rooms for freeand a hanger in the cleveage under the Adam's Apple;lame, dressed as girlhair-dyed and flirting her nudity,she looked like a plucked chickenshowing and boasting of her pecked skinwhen I can't stand no more I don't knowwhen I saw her like that I ran away, for not crying.

And to think that ten years ago she drove me madthat I came to betray for her beautythat she that now is junkwas the sweet passion where I lost the honor;that crazy for her beautyI left my mother without foodI became despicable and liar,that I was left without a friend, that I lived in bad faiththat she had me on my knees, without moral,like a beggar when she left.

I never dreamed that I'd see her in a requiescat in paceas cruel as today;look if is not for killing oneself,that I am what I am because of that useless girl.Horrible revenge gives the timethat makes one see closer what what he loved;this meeting has done me so badthat if I think of it more, I'll end up poisoned,tonight I'll get drunkI'll get very very drunk to not to think.
