Un Baile a Beneficio (feat. Jorge Vidal)

With the tall Pantaleón
Crazy Pepino and Juan
The hairy Santillan
Tito and crooked Ramón
We went with the intention
Of going to a lousy dance
For the benefit of a prisoner
Who was locked up
In Devoto and accused
For theft matters

Turns out the crazy one
Comes from a good family
But he has an inconvenience
The man
Is a chicken collector

At the bar for drinks
It was me, Tito, and the hairy one
Who was already half drunk
From the booze he had

But there I found a chick
Sucking like there's no tomorrow
There was the guitarist Augusto
Gatillo, the cut Potranca
And the deaf guy had a bat
That was scary to see

This friend always drunk
And to think he used to be a hitman
The man

In the women's environment
There were those from Mendieta
With the skinny Pañoleta
La Paja Brava and La China
Pichota, the swallow
The thief Encarnación
The fat one from the yard
Sarita from the alley
La Grela from Puñalada
And the brown one from the alley

It was quite
A very lively atmosphere
Soneri the atmosphere

Between the dancing and the moves
The black folks were tough
And between cuts and twists
They danced the milonga

A black woman kind of conga
Dancing with a guy
Stepped on the crazy one
Right on the bunion
If Santillan hadn't intervened
The crazy one, the crazy one would've punched him

But you have to see, friends
They always step on
The crazy one's bunion
Also, if the crazy one has
A bunion that looks
Like a milanesa

But the guy, such a poser
Gave the crazy one a slap
The crazy one fell like a toad
Making his face ring
Pañoleta intervened
To ease the situation
The guy wanted to sneak away
To a corner
But he got hit
With a slap from Pantaleón

Soon chaos broke out
Punches, blows, slaps
Santillan fired a shot
With a gun he had

Everyone was running
The house was empty
To end the evening
I stole a bandoneon
Pantaleón a pilot
And the crazy one with a swollen face
