Corrientes y Esmeralda (feat. Alberto Echagüe)

Corrientes and Esmeralda (feat. Alberto Echagüe)
Brave men calmed down
Next to your corners
When a tough guy
Hit them with a punch
And the tough gangs
Polished their shoes
Back in the year nineteen hundred two
Porteño corner
You set the trend
In a mix
Of sugarcane gin fizz
English stroll and gambling
Baccarat and lottery
Sugarcane hangovers
And crazy women
The Odeon takes charge
The royal academy
Bouncing tangos
The Royal Pigalle
And the rest is played
The sorrowful anemia
Waiting for the tram
To its suburb
From Esmeralda to the north
Towards Retiro
Momparma is coming
At the end of the prayer
It's the little French girl
Looking for money
Dodging the lens
Thrown by the button
Carlos de la Púa
Praises you in a poem
And Pascual Contursi
Was your loyal friend
In your folk corner
Any parrot
Dreams of the style
Of Carlos Gardel
