Tío Tequila
Lazaro Caballero
Uncle Tequila
The violins sound lovely
There in the Salteño Chaco
He'll be wandering around there
Cheering up the gathering
Companion for the party
Gaucho lineage of whole soul
He becomes wild when he dances
Gato, zambas, chacareras
With his art and his bohemia
The girls fall in love
Between arrests and handkerchiefs
Some laugh and others cry
The friends have arrived
The party is heating up
Go for it, Uncle Tequila
Don't hold back, stomp your feet
On a mission, the peace of the chango
Learned to play the guitar
And walked through the ravines
Extending the early hours
In those lands of the Chaco
Elegidio is famous
Every now and then he knows how to go
Strolling around with the gang
From Argentina to Paraguay
From Bolivia to Salta
Stomping, Uncle Tequila
Raises dust and shouts
The friends have arrived
The party is heating up
Go for it, Uncle Tequila
Don't hold back, stomp your feet
